Aggregate using one or more operations over the specified axis.
Function to use for aggregating the data. If a function, must either work when passed a DataFrame or when passed to DataFrame.apply.
Accepted combinations are:
function
string function name
list of functions and/or function names, e.g. [np.sum, 'mean']
dict of axis labels -> functions, function names or list of such.
Positional arguments to pass to func.
Keyword arguments to pass to func.
The return can be:
scalar : when Series.agg is called with single function
Series : when DataFrame.agg is called with a single function
DataFrame : when DataFrame.agg is called with several functions

DataFrame.groupby.aggregateAggregate using callable, string, dict, or list of string/callables.
DataFrame.resample.transformTransforms the Series on each group based on the given function.
DataFrame.aggregateAggregate using one or more operations over the specified axis.
Notes
The aggregation operations are always performed over an axis, either the index (default) or the column axis. This behavior is different from numpy aggregation functions (mean, median, prod, sum, std, var), where the default is to compute the aggregation of the flattened array, e.g., numpy.mean(arr_2d) as opposed to numpy.mean(arr_2d, axis=0).
agg is an alias for aggregate. Use the alias.
Functions that mutate the passed object can produce unexpected behavior or errors and are not supported. See Mutating with User Defined Function (UDF) methods for more details.
A passed user-defined-function will be passed a Series for evaluation.
Examples
>>> s = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
... index=pd.date_range('20130101', periods=5, freq='s'))
>>> s
