Description
-
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 master branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> s = pd.Series(range(4), name='oldser')
>>> s.reset_index(name='newser', drop=True)
0 0
1 1
2 2
3 3
Name: oldser, dtype: int64
>>> s.reset_index(name='newser', drop=True, inplace=True)
>>> s
0 0
1 1
2 2
3 3
Name: newser, dtype: int64
Issue Description
The documentation of Series.reset_index
mentions that name
argument is ignored when drop
is True. This only applies when inplace
is False.
Expected Behavior
When inplace
is True, should either match behavior when inplace
is False
. Or should at least update documentation.
