BUG: Resampler.quantile produce inconsistent results when interpolation='nearest' and q=0.5 · Issue #47942 · pandas-dev/pandas (original) (raw)

Pandas version checks

• I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
• I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
• I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [i for i in range(100)]}) df.index = pd.to_datetime(df['x'], unit='s')

res1 = df.resample('{}S'.format(n)).apply(lambda x: x.quantile(0.5, interpolation='nearest')).iloc[0][0] res2 = df.resample('{}S'.format(n)).quantile(0.5, interpolation='nearest').iloc[0][0] print("result from Resample.apply(lambda x: x.quantile(0.5, interpolation='nearest'): \t{}".format(res1)) print("result from Resample.quantile(q=0.5, interpolation='nearest'): \t{}".format(res2))

Issue Description

Resample.quantile(q=0.5, interpolation='nearest) and Resample.apply(lambda x: x.quantile(0.5, interpolation='nearest) produce different results. Behaviours were consistent when using other interpolation method, i.e. {‘linear’, ‘lower’, ‘higher’, ‘midpoint’} OR when q!=0.5

Expected Behavior

Actual result:
result from Resample.apply(lambda x: x.quantile(0.5, interpolation='nearest'): 50
result from Resample.quantile(q=0.5, interpolation='nearest'): 49

Expected result:
result from Resample.apply(lambda x: x.quantile(0.5, interpolation='nearest'): 50
result from Resample.quantile(q=0.5, interpolation='nearest'): 50
