Chronological order

 

stay  pandas  in , There is a very common function date_range, Especially when dealing with time series data , The purpose of this function is to generate a
DatetimeIndex, It is the index of time series data .

 

pandas.date_range(start=None, end=None, periods=None, freq=None, tz=None, 
normalize=False, name=None, closed=None, **kwargs) →
pandas.core.indexes.datetimes.DatetimeIndex

Returns a fixed frequency DatetimeIndex.

parameter :

    start:str  or datetime-like, Optional , The default value is None, Represents the starting point of the date .

    end:str  or  datetime-like, Optional , The default value is None, Indicates the end of the date .

    periods:
int, Optional , The default value is None, Indicates how many Date index values you want to generate from and this function ( Number of cycles to generate ); If it is None In my words , that  start  and  end  Must not be
None.

    freq:str  or  DateOffset, default  “D”, Represents the unit of natural day , This parameter is used to specify the time unit , such as “5H” Indicates every 5 Every hour .

Frequency per minute
 
S Frequency per second  
L, ms millisecond  
U, us Microsecond  
N nanosecond  
    tz:str  or tzinfo, Optional , Return to localized DatetimeIndex Time zone name for , for example ' Asia/Hong_Kong
'. By default , Generated DatetimeIndex It's time zone independent .

normalize:bool, default  False. If True  In my words , Before generating the time index value, the start  and end  It's all midnight of the day 0  spot .

name:str, default  None. Specify a name for the returned time index .

closed:{None, ‘left’, ‘right’}, Optional . The default value is None, express
start  and  end  Is the end of the interval included in the interval , There can be three values ,“left”  Represents a left closed right open interval ,“right”  Represents a left open right closed interval ,None  It means that both sides are closed intervals .

**kwargs: compatibility , It didn't affect the results .
