DataFrame.shift(periods: int) → polars.internals.frame.DF

Shift the values by a given period and fill the parts that will be empty due to this operation with Nones.

Parameters

periods

Number of places to shift (may be negative).

Examples

>>> df = pl.DataFrame(
...     {
...         "foo": [1, 2, 3],
...         "bar": [6, 7, 8],
...         "ham": ["a", "b", "c"],
...     }
... )
>>> df.shift(periods=1)
shape: (3, 3)
