Pandas is one of those packages and makes importing and analyzing data much easier. Pandas TimedeltaIndex.delete() function make a new DatetimeIndex with passed location deleted. The function can delete more than one locations at a time. It takes the index of the label to be deleted as the parameter.
Syntax : TimedeltaIndex.delete(loc) Parameters : loc : Indicate which sub-arrays to remove. Return : new_index : TimedeltaIndex
Example #1: Use TimedeltaIndex.delete() function to delete the passed index from the TimedeltaIndex object. Python3
# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Create the TimedeltaIndex object
tidx = pd.TimedeltaIndex(data =['06:05:01.000030', '+23:59:59.999999',
                                       '22 day 2 min 3us 10ns', None])

# Print the TimedeltaIndex object
print(tidx)
Output : Now we will use the TimedeltaIndex.delete() function to delete the value at 1st index. Note : The index value begins from 0. Python3
# delete the passed index
tidx.delete(1)

# Create the first TimedeltaIndex object
tidx = pd.TimedeltaIndex(start ='1 days 02:00:12.001124', periods = 8,
                                             freq ='N', name ='Koala')

# Print the TimedeltaIndex object
print(tidx)
Output : Now we will use the TimedeltaIndex.delete() function to delete the value at the passed index. Note : The index value begins from 0. Python3
# delete the passed indexes
tidx.delete([2, 3, 4])
