通过工作日的日期时间列对数据框进行分组

Question

I have a dataframe with one column in datetime format and the other columns in integers and floats. I would like to group the dataframe by the weekday of the first column. The other columns would be added.

print (df)
Day               Butter Bread Coffee
2019-07-01 00:00:00 2   2   4
2019-07-01 00:00:00 1  2   1
2019-07-02 00:00:00 5  4   8

Basically the outcome would be sometime alike:

print (df)
Day Butter Bread Coffee
Monday 3   4   5
Tuesday 5  4   8

I am flexible if it says exactly Monday, or MO or 01 for the first day of the week, as long it is visible which consumption was done on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Answer 1

try using .dt.day_name() and groupby(),sum()

df = pd.DataFrame(data={'day':['2019-07-01 00:00:00','2019-07-01 00:00:00','2019-07-02 00:00:00'],
                       'butter':[2,1,5],
                       'bread':[2,2,4],
                       'coffee':[4,1,8]}) 
df['day'] = pd.to_datetime(df['day']).dt.day_name()
df.groupby(['day'],as_index=False).sum()

     day    butter  bread   coffee
0   Monday      3      4    5
1   Tuesday     5      4    8

Answer 2

You should convert your "Day" to datetime type and then you can extract the day of the week and aggregate over the rest of the columns:

import pandas as pd
df['Day'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Day'])
df.groupby(df['Day'].dt.day_name()).sum()
