xarray.CFTimeIndex.get_slice_bound#

CFTimeIndex.get_slice_bound(label, side)[source]#

Calculate slice bound that corresponds to given label.

Returns leftmost (one-past-the-rightmost if side=='right') position of given label.

Parameters:
  • label (object) – The label for which to calculate the slice bound.

  • side ({'left', 'right'}) – if ‘left’ return leftmost position of given label. if ‘right’ return one-past-the-rightmost position of given label.

Returns:

int – Index of label.

Examples

>>> idx = pd.RangeIndex(5)
>>> idx.get_slice_bound(3, "left")
3
>>> idx.get_slice_bound(3, "right")
4

If label is non-unique in the index, an error will be raised.

>>> idx_duplicate = pd.Index(["a", "b", "a", "c", "d"])
>>> idx_duplicate.get_slice_bound("a", "left")

KeyError: Cannot get left slice bound for non-unique label: 'a'
