Signature de la fonction cut
def cut(x, bins, right: bool = True, labels=None, retbins: bool = False, precision: int = 3, include_lowest: bool = False, duplicates: str = 'raise', ordered: bool = True)
Description
cut.__doc__
Bin values into discrete intervals.
Use `cut` when you need to segment and sort data values into bins. This
function is also useful for going from a continuous variable to a
categorical variable. For example, `cut` could convert ages to groups of
age ranges. Supports binning into an equal number of bins, or a
pre-specified array of bins.
Parameters
----------
x : array-like
The input array to be binned. Must be 1-dimensional.
bins : int, sequence of scalars, or IntervalIndex
The criteria to bin by.
* int : Defines the number of equal-width bins in the range of `x`. The
range of `x` is extended by .1% on each side to include the minimum
and maximum values of `x`.
* sequence of scalars : Defines the bin edges allowing for non-uniform
width. No extension of the range of `x` is done.
* IntervalIndex : Defines the exact bins to be used. Note that
IntervalIndex for `bins` must be non-overlapping.
right : bool, default True
Indicates whether `bins` includes the rightmost edge or not. If
``right == True`` (the default), then the `bins` ``[1, 2, 3, 4]``
indicate (1,2], (2,3], (3,4]. This argument is ignored when
`bins` is an IntervalIndex.
labels : array or False, default None
Specifies the labels for the returned bins. Must be the same length as
the resulting bins. If False, returns only integer indicators of the
bins. This affects the type of the output container (see below).
This argument is ignored when `bins` is an IntervalIndex. If True,
raises an error. When `ordered=False`, labels must be provided.
retbins : bool, default False
Whether to return the bins or not. Useful when bins is provided
as a scalar.
precision : int, default 3
The precision at which to store and display the bins labels.
include_lowest : bool, default False
Whether the first interval should be left-inclusive or not.
duplicates : {default 'raise', 'drop'}, optional
If bin edges are not unique, raise ValueError or drop non-uniques.
ordered : bool, default True
Whether the labels are ordered or not. Applies to returned types
Categorical and Series (with Categorical dtype). If True,
the resulting categorical will be ordered. If False, the resulting
categorical will be unordered (labels must be provided).

Returns
-------
out : Categorical, Series, or ndarray
An array-like object representing the respective bin for each value
of `x`. The type depends on the value of `labels`.
* True (default) : returns a Series for Series `x` or a
Categorical for all other inputs. The values stored within
are Interval dtype.
* sequence of scalars : returns a Series for Series `x` or a
Categorical for all other inputs. The values stored within
are whatever the type in the sequence is.
* False : returns an ndarray of integers.
bins : numpy.ndarray or IntervalIndex.
The computed or specified bins. Only returned when `retbins=True`.
For scalar or sequence `bins`, this is an ndarray with the computed
bins. If set `duplicates=drop`, `bins` will drop non-unique bin. For
an IntervalIndex `bins`, this is equal to `bins`.
See Also
--------
qcut : Discretize variable into equal-sized buckets based on rank
or based on sample quantiles.
Categorical : Array type for storing data that come from a
fixed set of values.
Series : One-dimensional array with axis labels (including time series).
IntervalIndex : Immutable Index implementing an ordered, sliceable set.
Notes
-----
Any NA values will be NA in the result. Out of bounds values will be NA in
the resulting Series or Categorical object.
Examples
--------
Discretize into three equal-sized bins.
>>> pd.cut(np.array([1, 7, 5, 4, 6, 3]), 3)
... # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
[(0.994, 3.0], (5.0, 7.0], (3.0, 5.0], (3.0, 5.0], (5.0, 7.0], ...
Categories (3, interval[float64]): [(0.994, 3.0] < (3.0, 5.0] ...
>>> pd.cut(np.array([1, 7, 5, 4, 6, 3]), 3, retbins=True)
... # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
([(0.994, 3.0], (5.0, 7.0], (3.0, 5.0], (3.0, 5.0], (5.0, 7.0], ...
Categories (3, interval[float64]): [(0.994, 3.0] < (3.0, 5.0] ...
array([0.994, 3. , 5. , 7. ]))
Discovers the same bins, but assign them specific labels. Notice that
the returned Categorical's categories are `labels` and is ordered.
>>> pd.cut(np.array([1, 7, 5, 4, 6, 3]),
... 3, labels=["bad", "medium", "good"])
['bad', 'good', 'medium', 'medium', 'good', 'bad']
Categories (3, object): ['bad' < 'medium' < 'good']
``ordered=False`` will result in unordered categories when labels are passed.
This parameter can be used to allow non-unique labels:
>>> pd.cut(np.array([1, 7, 5, 4, 6, 3]), 3,
... labels=["B", "A", "B"], ordered=False)
['B', 'B', 'A', 'A', 'B', 'B']
Categories (2, object): ['A', 'B']
``labels=False`` implies you just want the bins back.
>>> pd.cut([0, 1, 1, 2], bins=4, labels=False)
array([0, 1, 1, 3])
Passing a Series as an input returns a Series with categorical dtype:
>>> s = pd.Series(np.array([2, 4, 6, 8, 10]),
... index=['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'])
>>> pd.cut(s, 3)
... # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
a (1.992, 4.667]
b (1.992, 4.667]
c (4.667, 7.333]
d (7.333, 10.0]
e (7.333, 10.0]
dtype: category
Categories (3, interval[float64]): [(1.992, 4.667] < (4.667, ...
Passing a Series as an input returns a Series with mapping value.
It is used to map numerically to intervals based on bins.
>>> s = pd.Series(np.array([2, 4, 6, 8, 10]),
... index=['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'])
>>> pd.cut(s, [0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10], labels=False, retbins=True, right=False)
... # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
(a 1.0
b 2.0
c 3.0
d 4.0
e NaN
dtype: float64,
array([ 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10]))
Use `drop` optional when bins is not unique
>>> pd.cut(s, [0, 2, 4, 6, 10, 10], labels=False, retbins=True,
... right=False, duplicates='drop')
... # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
(a 1.0
b 2.0
c 3.0
d 3.0
e NaN
dtype: float64,
array([ 0, 2, 4, 6, 10]))
Passing an IntervalIndex for `bins` results in those categories exactly.
Notice that values not covered by the IntervalIndex are set to NaN. 0
is to the left of the first bin (which is closed on the right), and 1.5
falls between two bins.
>>> bins = pd.IntervalIndex.from_tuples([(0, 1), (2, 3), (4, 5)])
>>> pd.cut([0, 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 4.5], bins)
[NaN, (0.0, 1.0], NaN, (2.0, 3.0], (4.0, 5.0]]
Categories (3, interval[int64]): [(0, 1] < (2, 3] < (4, 5]]
