how to separate rows into groups based on month pandas in python

You can use the groupby function of pandas along with the datetime module to group rows into groups based on month.

Here is an example:

main.py
import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime

# Create sample data
df = pd.DataFrame({
    "date": ["2022-01-01", "2022-01-03", "2022-02-05", "2022-02-20", "2022-03-01"],
    "value": [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
})

# Convert the date column to datetime format
df["date"] = pd.to_datetime(df["date"])

# Group by month
grouped = df.groupby(pd.Grouper(key="date", freq="M"))

# Loop through the groups and print the month and corresponding data
for name, group in grouped:
    print("Month:", name.strftime("%B %Y"))
    print(group)

In this example, we created a DataFrame with two columns (date and value), where date is in string format. We first converted the date column to datetime format using pd.to_datetime(). Then, we used the groupby() function to group the rows into groups based on the month. We passed the pd.Grouper() function with the key parameter set to "date" and the freq parameter set to "M" to group by month. Finally, we looped through the groups and printed the month and corresponding data.

Output:

main.py
Month: January 2022
        date  value
0 2022-01-01     10
1 2022-01-03     20
Month: February 2022
        date  value
2 2022-02-05     30
3 2022-02-20     40
Month: March 2022
        date  value
4 2022-03-01     50
