Question

假设我在熊猫中有2个系列：

from datetime import datetime, timedelta
import pandas as pd
d = datetime.now()
index = [d + timedelta(seconds = i) for i in range(5)]
a = pd.Series([1,4,5,7,8], index = index)
b = pd.Series([2,3,6,7,8], index = index)

获取相应索引元素的最小/最大值的最佳方法是什么。像：

min_func(a, b): [1,3,5,7,8] (for given index)
max_func(a, b): [2,4,6,7,8]

我在文档中找到的唯一函数是在系列中返回min / max的min / max函数，而.apply函数不接受index参数。有没有更好的方法来实现，没有手动系列迭代或一些算术魔术（如min_func：a *（a = a））

将系列组合成一个自动与索引对齐的框架

In [51]: index
Out[51]: 
[datetime.datetime(2013, 8, 26, 18, 33, 48, 990974),
 datetime.datetime(2013, 8, 26, 18, 33, 49, 990974),
 datetime.datetime(2013, 8, 26, 18, 33, 50, 990974),
 datetime.datetime(2013, 8, 26, 18, 33, 51, 990974),
 datetime.datetime(2013, 8, 26, 18, 33, 52, 990974)]

In [52]: a = pd.Series([1,4,5,7,8], index = index)

In [53]: b = pd.Series([2,3,6,7,8], index = index)
