Selecting Rows with DateTimeIndex without referring to date












0















Is there a way to select rows with a DateTimeIndex without referring to the date as such e.g. selecting row index 2 (the usual Python default manner) rather than "1995-02-02"?



enter image description here



Thanks in advance.

          Yes, you can use .iloc, the positional indexer:



          df.iloc[2]


          Basically, it indexes by actual position starting from 0 to len(df), allowing slicing too:



          df.iloc[2:5]


          It also works for columns (by position, again):



          df.iloc[:, 0]  # All rows, first column
          df.iloc[0:2, 0:2] # First 2 rows, first 2 columns

            Yes, you can use .iloc, the positional indexer:



            df.iloc[2]


            Basically, it indexes by actual position starting from 0 to len(df), allowing slicing too:



            df.iloc[2:5]


            It also works for columns (by position, again):



            df.iloc[:, 0]  # All rows, first column
            df.iloc[0:2, 0:2] # First 2 rows, first 2 columns
