Definition and Usage
The rmul()
method multiplies a specified
value with each value in the DataFrame.
This method is called reverse mul, and is similar to the
mul() method, but
instead of calculating 100 * 10
it calculates
10 * 100
,
which in this case will give the same result.
The specified value must be an object that can be multiplied with the values of the DataFrame. It can be a
constant number like the one in the example, or it can be a list-like object
like a list [10, 20]
or a tuple
{"points": 10, "total": 2}
, or a Pandas
Series or another DataFrame, that fits with the original DataFrame.
Syntax
dataframe.rmul(other, axis, level, fill_value)
