modin.pandas.SeriesGroupBy.head¶

SeriesGroupBy.head(n=5)[source] (https://github.com/snowflakedb/snowpark-python/blob/v1.47.0/.tox/docs/lib/python3.9/site-packages/modin/pandas/groupby.py#L1421-L1431)¶

Return first n rows of each group.

Similar to .apply(lambda x: x.head(n)), but it returns a subset of rows from the original DataFrame with original index and order preserved (as_index flag is ignored).

Parameters:: n (int) – If positive: number of entries to include from the start of each group. If negative: number of entries to exclude from the end of each group.
Returns:: Subset of the original Series or DataFrame as determined by n.
Return type:: Series or DataFrame

...                   columns=['A', 'B'])
>>> df.groupby('A').head(1)
   A  B
0  1  2
2  5  6

   A  B
0  1  2
