Python Pandas - Calculate the left slice bound that corresponds to given label


To calculate the left slice bound that corresponds to given label, use the index.get_slice_bound(). Set the side parameter to left.

At first, import the required libraries −

import pandas as pd

Creating Pandas index −

index = pd.Index([10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70])

Display the Pandas index −

print("Pandas Index...\n",index)

Get the left slice bound. Returns the left slice bound of given label if "side" parameter is set to "left"

print("\nGet the left slice bound...\n",index.get_slice_bound(30, side='left', kind ='getitem'))

Example

Following is the code −

import pandas as pd

# Creating Pandas index
index = pd.Index([10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70])

# Display the Pandas index
print("Pandas Index...\n",index)

# Return the number of elements in the Index
print("\nNumber of elements in the index...\n",index.size)

# Get the left slice bound
# Returns the left slice bound of given label if "side" parameter is set to "left"
print("\nGet the left slice bound...\n", index.get_slice_bound(30, side='left', kind ='getitem'))

Output

This will produce the following output −

Pandas Index...
Int64Index([10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70], dtype='int64')

Number of elements in the index...
7

Get the left slice bound...
