Python | Pandas Timedelta.seconds

Pandas is a library for data manipulation in Python. The Timedelta module of Pandas provides various attributes and methods to work with time intervals.

One such method is Timedelta.seconds. This method returns the total number of seconds in the time interval object.

Here's an example:

import pandas as pd

# create a timedelta object
td = pd.Timedelta(days=1, hours=2, minutes=30)

# get the total number of seconds
seconds = td.seconds

print(seconds)

Output:

9000

In the above example, we created a Timedelta object representing a duration of 1 day, 2 hours, and 30 minutes. We then used the seconds attribute to get the total number of seconds in the duration, which is 9000.

Note that Timedelta.seconds only returns the number of seconds in the time interval. If the time interval is greater than one day, the number of seconds will not include the number of seconds in the days. For example:

import pandas as pd

# create a timedelta object greater than one day
td = pd.Timedelta(days=2, hours=3, minutes=30, seconds=15)

# get the total number of seconds
seconds = td.seconds

print(seconds)

Output:

12615

In the above example, we created a Timedelta object representing a duration of 2 days, 3 hours, 30 minutes, and 15 seconds. We then used the seconds attribute to get the total number of seconds in the duration, which is 12615. Note that the number of seconds from the days (i.e., 2 * 24 * 60 * 60 seconds) is not included.

In summary, the Timedelta.seconds method is a useful method to get the total number of seconds in a Pandas Timedelta object. However, it only returns the number of seconds in the time interval, and not the seconds in any days present in the interval.
