pandas.core.groupby.DataFrameGroupBy.transform   DataFrameGroupBy.transform(func, *args, engine=None, engine_kwargs=None, **kwargs)[source]
 
Call function producing a like-indexed DataFrame on each group and return a DataFrame having the same indexes as the original object filled with the transformed values.  Parameters 
 
f:function


Function to apply to each group. Can also accept a Numba JIT function with engine='numba' specified. If the 'numba' engine is chosen, the function must be a user defined function with values and index as the first and second arguments respectively in the function signature. Each group’s index will be passed to the user defined function and optionally available for use.  Changed in version 1.1.0.   *args

Positional arguments to pass to func.  
engine:str, default None


 'cython' : Runs the function through C-extensions from cython. 'numba' : Runs the function through JIT compiled code from numba. None : Defaults to 'cython' or the global setting compute.use_numba   New in version 1.1.0.   
engine_kwargs:dict, default None


 For 'cython' engine, there are no accepted engine_kwargs For 'numba' engine, the engine can accept nopython, nogil and parallel dictionary keys. The values must either be True or False. The default engine_kwargs for the 'numba' engine is {'nopython': True, 'nogil': False, 'parallel': False} and will be applied to the function   New in version 1.1.0.   **kwargs

Keyword arguments to be passed into func.    Returns 
 DataFrame
    See also  DataFrame.groupby.apply

Apply function func group-wise and combine the results together.  DataFrame.groupby.aggregate

Aggregate using one or more operations over the specified axis.  DataFrame.transform

Call func on self producing a DataFrame with the same axis shape as self.    Notes Each group is endowed the attribute ‘name’ in case you need to know which group you are working on. The current implementation imposes three requirements on f:  f must return a value that either has the same shape as the input subframe or can be broadcast to the shape of the input subframe. For example, if f returns a scalar it will be broadcast to have the same shape as the input subframe. if this is a DataFrame, f must support application column-by-column in the subframe. If f also supports application to the entire subframe, then a fast path is used starting from the second chunk. f must not mutate groups. Mutation is not supported and may produce unexpected results. See Mutating with User Defined Function (UDF) methods for more details.  When using engine='numba', there will be no “fall back” behavior internally. The group data and group index will be passed as numpy arrays to the JITed user defined function, and no alternative execution attempts will be tried.  Changed in version 1.3.0: The resulting dtype will reflect the return value of the passed func, see the examples below.  Examples 
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'A' : ['foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'bar',
...                           'foo', 'bar'],
...                    'B' : ['one', 'one', 'two', 'three',
...                           'two', 'two'],
...                    'C' : [1, 5, 5, 2, 5, 5],
...                    'D' : [2.0, 5., 8., 1., 2., 9.]})
>>> grouped = df.groupby('A')
>>> grouped.transform(lambda x: (x - x.mean()) / x.std())
          C         D

2  0.577350  1.154701
3 -1.154701 -1.000000
4  0.577350 -0.577350
5  0.577350  1.000000
  Broadcast result of the transformation 
>>> grouped.transform(lambda x: x.max() - x.min())
   C    D
0  4  6.0
1  3  8.0
2  4  6.0
3  3  8.0
4  4  6.0
5  3  8.0
   Changed in version 1.3.0: The resulting dtype will reflect the return value of the passed func, for example:  
>>> grouped[['C', 'D']].transform(lambda x: x.astype(int).max())
   C  D
0  5  8
1  5  9
2  5  8
3  5  9
4  5  8
5  5  9
