Python | Pandas Series.dt.second

Series.dt can be used to access the values of the series as datetimelike and return several properties. Pandas Series.dt.second attribute return a numpy array containing the second of the datetime in the underlying data of the given series object.

Syntax: Series.dt.second Parameter : None Returns : numpy array

Example #1: Use Series.dt.second attribute to return the seconds of the datetime in the underlying data of the given Series object. Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the Series
sr = pd.Series(['2012-10-21 09:30:45', '2019-7-18 12:30:21', '2008-02-2 10:30:38',
               '2010-4-22 09:25:19', '2019-11-8 02:22:44'])

# Creating the index
idx = ['Day 1', 'Day 2', 'Day 3', 'Day 4', 'Day 5']

# set the index
sr.index = idx

# Convert the underlying data to datetime 
sr = pd.to_datetime(sr)

# Print the series
print(sr)

Output : Now we will use Series.dt.second attribute to return the seconds of the datetime in the underlying data of the given Series object. Python3

# return the second
result = sr.dt.second

# print the result
print(result)

Output : As we can see in the output, the Series.dt.second attribute has successfully accessed and returned the second of the datetime in the underlying data of the given series object.   Example #2 : Use Series.dt.second attribute to return the seconds of the datetime in the underlying data of the given Series object. Python3

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Creating the Series
sr = pd.Series(pd.date_range('2012-12-12 12:12', periods = 5, freq = 'H'))

# Creating the index
idx = ['Day 1', 'Day 2', 'Day 3', 'Day 4', 'Day 5']

# set the index
sr.index = idx

# Print the series
print(sr)

Output : Now we will use Series.dt.second attribute to return the seconds of the datetime in the underlying data of the given Series object. Python3

# return the second
result = sr.dt.second

# print the result
print(result)

Output : As we can see in the output, the Series.dt.second attribute has successfully accessed and returned the second of the datetime in the underlying data of the given series object.
