DISP: show column dtype in DataFrame.info() output

[cpcloud]

closes #3429.

Old:

In [39]: DataFrame(randn(10,2)).info()
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
Int64Index: 10 entries, 0 to 9
Data columns (total 2 columns):
0    10  non-null values
1    10  non-null values
dtypes: float64(2)

New:

In [39]: DataFrame(randn(10,2)).info()
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
Int64Index: 10 entries, 0 to 9
Data columns (total 2 columns):
0    10 non-null float64
1    10 non-null object
dtypes: float64(1), object(1)

@cpcloud can you put an example of old and new up in the descr...

[cpcloud]

sure thing

[cpcloud]

@y-p @jreback merge on passing?

[jreback]

I think their is an issue about adding the info method to Series, so maybe make a quick test method that assets that it raises (and ref this issue) - because series doesn't have a dtypes method (and this needs a modification for this change)

[cpcloud]

ok

0.14 starts next week, honor the bug-fix only period?

[cpcloud]

@y-p ahh yes... sorry. merge after 0.13 rls

[ghost]

It's clear nothing could possibly go wrong with something as simple as this. We've been there before... :)

[cpcloud]

@jreback

and this needs a modification for this change

not sure what u mean

[jreback]

what I mean is that the implementation would break for an info method on series (which doesn't exists at the moment)

so I think that you should have a test of this method that assert raises with a series for attribute error

[cpcloud]

Yep ok that's what I thought. Test is there.

[jreback]

i think this is fine

Thanks @cpcloud. You used to be a code fountain not that long ago, did RL catch up with you? :)

will add release notes.

Got a job where I don't use Python. Had to put my pandas love on the back burner while I refamiliarize myself with C++ and learn a bunch of windows OS material. Not a whole lot of time on Linux. It brings me to tears occasionally. I'll try to at least bring it to a trickle in the coming months.

[ghost]

please. trickle. :)

if you're in microsoft land, LINQ and Rx are quite beautiful...

[cpcloud]

I can add those release notes tomorrow if you don't beat me to it. Otherwise, much appreciated.

Done 10 minutes ago, don't worry about it.
