pandas.core.window.rolling.Rolling.median#
- Rolling.median(engine=None, engine_kwargs=None, **kwargs)[source]#
- Calculate the rolling median. - Parameters
- enginestr, default None
- 'cython': Runs the operation through C-extensions from cython.
- 'numba': Runs the operation through JIT compiled code from numba.
- None: Defaults to- 'cython'or globally setting- compute.use_numba- New in version 1.3.0. 
 
- engine_kwargsdict, default None
- For - 'cython'engine, there are no accepted- engine_kwargs
- For - 'numba'engine, the engine can accept- nopython,- nogiland- paralleldictionary keys. The values must either be- Trueor- False. The default- engine_kwargsfor the- 'numba'engine is- {'nopython': True, 'nogil': False, 'parallel': False}- New in version 1.3.0. 
 
- **kwargs
- For NumPy compatibility and will not have an effect on the result. 
 
- Returns
- Series or DataFrame
- Return type is the same as the original object with - np.float64dtype.
