i have a dataframe that contains cell phone minutes usage logged by date of call and duration.
It looks like this (30 row sample):
id user_id call_date duration
0 1000_93 1000 2018-12-27 8.52
1 1000_145 1000 2018-12-27 13.66

I want to group by user_id AND call_date with the ultimate goal of calculating the number of minutes used per month over the course of the year, per user.
I thought i could accomplish this by using:
calls.groupby(['user_id','call_date'])['duration'].sum()
but the results aren't what i expected:
user_id call_date
1000 2018-12-26 14.36
2018-12-27 48.26
2018-12-28 29.00
2018-12-29 1.70
2018-12-30 4.22
2018-12-31 19.29
1001 2018-08-14 13.86
2018-08-16 23.46
2018-08-17 8.11
2018-08-18 1.74

2018-08-24 8.63
2018-08-25 35.39

2018-08-28 19.91
2018-08-29 0.54
2018-08-31 22.38
2018-09-01 7.53
2018-09-02 10.27
2018-09-03 30.66
2018-09-04 0.00
2018-09-05 9.09
2018-09-06 10.06
i'd hoped that it would be grouped like user_id 1000, all calls for jan with duration summed, all calls for feb with duration summed, etc.
i am really new to python and programming in general and am not sure what my next step should be to get these grouped by user_id and month of the year?
Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer.

Jared
Something is not quite right in your setup. First of all, both of your tables are the same, so I am not sure if this is a cut-and-paste error or something else. Here is what I do with your data. Load it up like so, note we explicitly convert call_date
to Datetime`
from io import StringIO
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv(StringIO(
"""
id user_id call_date duration
0 1000_93 1000 2018-12-27 8.52

"""), delim_whitespace = True, index_col=0)
df['call_date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['call_date'])
Then using
df.groupby(['user_id','call_date'])['duration'].sum()
does the expected grouping by user and by each date:
user_id call_date
1000 2018-12-26 14.36
2018-12-27 48.26
2018-12-28 29.00
2018-12-29 1.70
2018-12-30 4.22
2018-12-31 19.29
1001 2018-09-06 10.06
2018-09-21 5.75
2018-09-30 14.78
2018-10-12 1.00
2018-10-17 15.83
2018-10-27 0.98
2018-10-28 5.90
2018-11-09 1.00
2018-11-15 30.00
2018-11-17 2.45
2018-11-19 2.40
2018-12-04 7.19
2018-12-05 0.00
2018-12-13 6.27
2018-12-24 0.00
If you want to group by month as you seem to suggest you can use the Grouper
functionality:
df.groupby(['user_id',pd.Grouper(key='call_date', freq='1M')])['duration'].sum()
which produces
user_id call_date
1000 2018-12-31 116.83
1001 2018-09-30 30.59
2018-10-31 23.71
2018-11-30 35.85
2018-12-31 13.46
