Adding Seconds to Datetime Format in Pandas Using Cumcount and Timedelta
Understanding the Problem and Context Adding seconds to a datetime format is a common task, especially when working with time-series data. In this blog post, we’ll explore an efficient way to achieve this using pandas, Python’s powerful data analysis library. We’re given a pandas DataFrame containing 1-second data in the form “10/23/2017 6:00”. Each time appears 60 times in the file, and our goal is to add seconds to each row such that we get “10/23/2017 6:00:00, 10/23/2017 6:00:01 …”.
