I have a TimeDelta column with values that look like this:
2 days 21:54:00.000000000
I would like to have a float representing the number of days, let's say here 2+21/24 = 2.875, neglecting the minutes. Is there a simple way to do this ? I saw an answer suggesting
res['Ecart_lacher_collecte'].apply(lambda x: float(x.item().days+x.item().hours/24.))
But I get "AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'item' "
Numpy version is '1.10.4' Pandas version is u'0.17.1'
The columns has originally been obtained with:
lac['DateHeureLacher'] = pd.to_datetime(lac['Date lacher']+' '+lac['Heure lacher'],format='%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S')
cap['DateCollecte'] = pd.to_datetime(cap['Date de collecte']+' '+cap['Heure de collecte'],format='%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S')
in a first script. Then in a second one:
res = pd.merge(lac, cap, how='inner', on=['Loc'])
res['DateHeureLacher'] = pd.to_datetime(res['DateHeureLacher'],format='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
res['DateCollecte'] = pd.to_datetime(res['DateCollecte'],format='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
res['Ecart_lacher_collecte'] = res['DateCollecte'] - res['DateHeureLacher']
Maybe saving it to csv change their types back to string? The transformation I'm trying to do is in a third script.

You can use dt.total_seconds and divide this by the total number of seconds in a day, example:
In [25]:
df = pd.DataFrame({'dates':pd.date_range(dt.datetime(2016,1,1, 12,15,3), periods=10)})
df
Out[25]:

You can use pd.to_timedelta or np.timedelta64 to define a duration and divide by this:
# set up as per @EdChum
df['total_days_td'] = df['time_delta'] / pd.to_timedelta(1, unit='D')
df['total_days_td'] = df['time_delta'] / np.timedelta64(1, 'D')
Have you tried using this instead?
res['Ecart_lacher_collecte'].apply(lambda x: (x.total_seconds()//(3600*24)) + (x.total_seconds()%(3600*24)//3600)/24))
The first term is the Day ( 2 in your case ) The second term is the hour ratio neglecting the minutes ( 21/24 in your case)
If you don't want the minutes and seconds data to be neglected, and rather need a ratio which considers all the seconds in the day, the code is as mentioned below:
res['Ecart_lacher_collecte'].apply(lambda x: (x.total_seconds()/(3600*24))
