Signature de la méthode nlargest

def nlargest(self, n=5, keep='first') -> 'Series' 

Description

nlargest.__doc__

        Return the largest `n` elements.

        Parameters
        ----------
        n : int, default 5
            Return this many descending sorted values.
        keep : {'first', 'last', 'all'}, default 'first'
            When there are duplicate values that cannot all fit in a
            Series of `n` elements:

            - ``first`` : return the first `n` occurrences in order
                of appearance.
            - ``last`` : return the last `n` occurrences in reverse
                order of appearance.
            - ``all`` : keep all occurrences. This can result in a Series of
                size larger than `n`.

        Returns
        -------
        Series
            The `n` largest values in the Series, sorted in decreasing order.

        See Also
        --------
        Series.nsmallest: Get the `n` smallest elements.
        Series.sort_values: Sort Series by values.
        Series.head: Return the first `n` rows.

        Notes
        -----
        Faster than ``.sort_values(ascending=False).head(n)`` for small `n`
        relative to the size of the ``Series`` object.

        Examples
        --------
        >>> countries_population = {"Italy": 59000000, "France": 65000000,
        ...                         "Malta": 434000, "Maldives": 434000,
        ...                         "Brunei": 434000, "Iceland": 337000,
        ...                         "Nauru": 11300, "Tuvalu": 11300,
        ...                         "Anguilla": 11300, "Montserrat": 5200}
        >>> s = pd.Series(countries_population)
        >>> s
        Italy       59000000
        France      65000000
        Malta         434000
        Maldives      434000
        Brunei        434000
        Iceland       337000
        Nauru          11300
        Tuvalu         11300
        Anguilla       11300
        Montserrat      5200
        dtype: int64

        The `n` largest elements where ``n=5`` by default.

        >>> s.nlargest()
        France      65000000
        Italy       59000000
        Malta         434000
        Maldives      434000
        Brunei        434000
        dtype: int64

        The `n` largest elements where ``n=3``. Default `keep` value is 'first'
        so Malta will be kept.

        >>> s.nlargest(3)
        France    65000000
        Italy     59000000
        Malta       434000
        dtype: int64

        The `n` largest elements where ``n=3`` and keeping the last duplicates.
        Brunei will be kept since it is the last with value 434000 based on
        the index order.

        >>> s.nlargest(3, keep='last')
        France      65000000
        Italy       59000000
        Brunei        434000
        dtype: int64

        The `n` largest elements where ``n=3`` with all duplicates kept. Note
        that the returned Series has five elements due to the three duplicates.

        >>> s.nlargest(3, keep='all')
        France      65000000
        Italy       59000000
        Malta         434000
        Maldives      434000
        Brunei        434000
        dtype: int64
