Using `astype` with `CategoricalDtype` coerces values into `Index`, where the code tries to compare two `Index` objects with numpy and pyarrow types. 

In the first example, the code does not think they are comparable in `Index._should_compare`, and returns all -1s. In the second example, the code correctly determines that they are comparable, but they try to compare it (coercing both indexes to object dtypes with `Index._find_common_type_compat`) and fail. Hence, both cases return all -1s. 
So we should start by fixing should_compare?

Sorry I missed this earlier. The fix I pushed addresses that and resolves the second issue too.

As discussed on the last dev call, this implements `"mode.nan_is_na"` (default `True`) to consider NaN as either always-equivalent or never-equivalent to NA.

This sits on top of

- #62021, which trims the diff here by updating some tests to use NA instead of NaN.  
- #61732 which implements the option but only for pyarrow dtypes.
- #62038 which addresses an issue in `DataFrame.where`
- #62053 which addresses a kludge in read_csv with engine="pyarrow"

Still need to

- [x] Add docs for the new option, including whatsnew section
- [x] deal with a kludge in algorithms.rank; fixed by #62043

You can comment `pre-commit.ci autofix` in this PR to get pre-commit to add a commit to fix it for you.

"BUG: Fix repeated rolling mean assignment causing all-NaN values"
State: closed

## Fix repeated rolling mean assignment causing all-NaN values

- Closes #<issue_number> (if there’s an issue, otherwise leave this out)
- This PR fixes a regression where assigning the result of `.rolling().mean()` to a DataFrame column more than once caused all values in the column to become NaN (see pandas-dev/pandas#61841).
- The bug was due to pandas reusing memory blocks when overwriting an existing column with a rolling result Series, leading to incorrect block alignment.
- The fix is to make a defensive `.copy()` of the Series when overwriting an existing column, ensuring correct assignment.

### Example

```python
df = pd.DataFrame({"A": range(30)})
df["SMA"] = df["A"].rolling(20).mean()
df["SMA"] = df["A"].rolling(20).mean()
print(df["SMA"].notna().sum())  # should be > 0, not all NaN
```

### Tests

- Added a regression test in `pandas/tests/window/test_rolling.py`.
- All tests pass locally.

---

Thanks for your consideration!

API: timestamp resolution inference: default to microseconds when possible
State: open

Draft PR for https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/issues/58989/

This should already make sure that we consistently use 'us' when converting non-numeric data in `pd.to_datetime` and `pd.Timestamp`, but if we want to do this, this PR still requires updating lots of tests and docs (and whatsnew) and cleaning up.

Currently the changes here will ensure that we use microseconds more consistently when inferring the resolution while creating datetime64 data. Exceptions: if the data don't fit in the range of us (either because out of bounds (use ms or s) or because it has nanoseconds or below (use ns)), or if the input data already has a resolution defined (for Timestamp objects, or numpy datetime64 data).

BUG: Catch TypeError in _is_dtype_type when converting abstract numpy types (#62018)
State: open

- Closes #62018
- Wrap np.dtype() call in try/except to handle abstract numpy types (e.g. np.floating, np.inexact).
- On TypeError, return condition(type(None)) to indicate mismatch rather than raising.

This prevents `is_signed_integer_dtype` and similar functions from raising on abstract NumPy classes and restores expected behaviour.

This is a small perf hit that will add up in a ton of places, all for something that we shouldn't expect to work anyway.

This PR fixes a bug in  (DataFrame._reduce) where reductions on (DataFrames) with mixed dtypes (e.g., float64 and nullable integer Int64) would incorrectly upcast all results to use pd.NA and the Float64 dtype if any column was a pandas extension type.

Fix for #57330. In all tests where `observed` makes a difference, we explicitly specify `observed` so this wasn't noticed. The deprecation itself was properly done (saying that we were changing the default to True), it was only the enforcement of the deprecation that had a mistake.

BUG: Raise TypeError for invalid calendar types in CustomBusinessDay (#60647)
State: closed

- Closes #60647

### Bug Description
Previously, if an invalid `calendar` argument was passed to `CustomBusinessDay` (e.g., a `pandas_market_calendars` object), it was silently ignored. This resulted in potentially incorrect behavior without warning, which could lead to confusion and incorrect results.

### What This Fix Does
- Adds a strict type check in `offsets.pyx` to ensure the `calendar` parameter is either a `numpy.busdaycalendar` or `AbstractHolidayCalendar`.
- If the type is invalid, a `TypeError` is raised with a clear error message.
- This aligns with expected behavior and helps prevent incorrect usage.

### Tests Added
- ✅ New unit test `test_invalid_calendar_raises_typeerror` added to `test_custom_business_day.py` to assert that an invalid calendar raises a `TypeError`.
- ✅ Existing test `test_calendar` was updated to construct a valid `np.busdaycalendar` from `USFederalHolidayCalendar` dates.
- ✅ All 8 tests in this module now pass successfully.

### Why This Matters
Silently ignoring invalid input is dangerous and can introduce subtle bugs. This fix ensures strict input validation and protects downstream consumers from incorrect assumptions.

### Checklist
- [x] Bug fix added and tested
- [x] New test added for reproducibility
- [x] All existing + new tests pass locally via `pytest`
- [x] Clear commit message: `"BUG: Raise TypeError for invalid calendar types in CustomBusinessDay (#60647)"`
- [x] pandas test structure followed

Fix for issue 62001; ENH: Context-aware error messages for optional dependencies
State: closed

#62001

Summary

  This PR enhances import_optional_dependency() to provide context-aware error messages that suggest relevant alternatives when       
  dependencies are missing, addressing issue #62001.

  Before:
  Missing optional dependency 'openpyxl'. Use pip or conda to install openpyxl.

  After:
  Missing optional dependency 'openpyxl'. For Excel file operations, try installing xlsxwriter, calamine, xlrd, pyxlsb, or odfpy.     
   Use pip or conda to install openpyxl.

  Implementation Details

  - Core Enhancement: Added operation_context parameter to import_optional_dependency() with 13 predefined contexts (excel,
  plotting, html, xml, sql, performance, compression, cloud, formats, computation, timezone, testing, development)
  - Smart Alternative Filtering: Excludes the failed dependency from suggestions to avoid confusion
  - Backward Compatibility: All existing calls work unchanged; new parameter is optional
  - Strategic Implementation: Updated high-impact locations where users commonly encounter missing dependencies:
    - Excel operations (5 readers: openpyxl, xlrd, calamine, pyxlsb, odf)
    - Plotting operations (matplotlib)
    - HTML parsing operations (html5lib)

  Files Modified

  1. pandas/compat/_optional.py: Core enhancement with context mapping and message building
  2. pandas/tests/test_optional_dependency.py: Updated test patterns and added comprehensive context tests
  3. pandas/io/excel/_*.py: Added context to 5 Excel readers
  4. pandas/plotting/_core.py: Added plotting context
  5. pandas/io/html.py: Added HTML parsing context
  6. doc/source/whatsnew/v3.0.0.rst: Added whatsnew entry

  Testing

  - All existing tests pass with updated patterns
  - New tests verify context functionality works correctly
  - Manual verification confirms all files compile successfully
  - Backward compatibility maintained for existing calls

- [x] closes #xxxx (Replace xxxx with the GitHub issue number)
- [x] [Tests added and passed](https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/dev/development/contributing_codebase.html#writing-tests) if fixing a bug or adding a new feature
- [x] All [code checks passed](https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/dev/development/contributing_codebase.html#pre-commit).
