BUG: Grouped rank incorrect behaviour with nullable types · Issue #54206 · 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

numpy dtype (None -> np.NaN)

This will print the following:

0 1.0

Name: x, dtype: float64

This is the expected behaviour

df_np = pd.DataFrame({ "x": [None] }, dtype="float64") print(df_np.groupby("x", dropna=False)["x"].rank(method="min", na_option="bottom"))

pandas nullable dtype (None -> pd.NA)

This will print the following:

0

Name: x, dtype: Float64

This is NOT the expected behaviour, because the rank is NA instead of 1

df_ext = pd.DataFrame({ "x": [None] }, dtype="Float64") print(df_ext.groupby("x", dropna=False)["x"].rank(method="min", na_option="bottom"))

Issue Description

When using the rank function on grouped data frames, the result is different when using nullable datatypes compared to numpy datatypes.
This is only an issue when passing na_option="bottom" or na_option="top".

Expected Behavior

The result shouldn't depend on the datatype that got used.
