Python Pandas - Return a new Timedelta with milliseconds ceiling resolution

To return a new Timedelta ceiled to this resolution, use the timedelta.ceil() method. For milliseconds ceiling resolution, set the freq parameter to the value ms.

At first, import the required libraries −

import pandas as pd

TimeDeltas is Python’s standard datetime library uses a different representation timedelta’s. Create a Timedelta object

timedelta = pd.Timedelta('2 days 10 hours 45 min 20 s 35 ms 55 ns')

Display the Timedelta

print("Timedelta...\n", timedelta)

Return the ceiled Timestamp with milliseconds ceiling resolution

timedelta.ceil(freq='ms')

Example

Following is the code

import pandas as pd

# TimeDeltas is Python’s standard datetime library uses a different representation timedelta’s
# create a Timedelta object
timedelta = pd.Timedelta('2 days 10 hours 45 min 20 s 35 ms 55 ns')

# display the Timedelta
print("Timedelta...\n", timedelta)

# return the ceiled Timestamp
# with milliseconds ceiling resolution
res = timedelta.ceil(freq='ms')

# display the ceiled Timestamp
print("\nTimedelta (milliseconds ceiled)...\n", res)

Output

This will produce the following code

Timedelta...
2 days 10:45:20.035000055

Timedelta (milliseconds ceiled)...
2 days 10:45:20.036000
