This is a major release from 0.19.2 and includes a small number of API changes, several new features,
enhancements, and performance improvements along with a large number of bug fixes.
Highlights include:
.agg()
API for Series/DataFrame similar to the groupby-rolling-resample API's, see herefeather-format
, including a new top-level pd.read_feather()
and DataFrame.to_feather()
method, see here.ix
indexer has been deprecated, see herePanel
has been deprecated, see hereIntervalIndex
and Interval
scalar type, see here.groupby()
, see hereUInt64
dtypes, see hereorient='table'
, that uses the Table Schema spec, see hereDataFrame.style
formats to Excel, see hereDataFrame
