    Create a DataFrame with some range of numbers.

    The resulting DataFrame has a single int64 column named `id`, containing elements in a range

    (i.e. start) is specified, we treat it as the end value with the start value being 0.

    Parameters
    ----------
    path : str or list
        Path(s) of the CSV file(s) to be read.
    sep : str, default ‘,’
        Delimiter to use. Non empty string.
    header : int, default ‘infer’
        Whether to use the column names, and the start of the data.
        Default behavior is to infer the column names: if no names are passed
        the behavior is identical to `header=0` and column names are inferred from
        the first line of the file, if column names are passed explicitly then
        the behavior is identical to `header=None`. Explicitly pass `header=0` to be
        able to replace existing names
    names : str or array-like, optional
        List of column names to use. If file contains no header row, then you should
        explicitly pass `header=None`. Duplicates in this list will cause an error to be issued.
        If a string is given, it should be a DDL-formatted string in Spark SQL, which is
        preferred to avoid schema inference for better performance.
    index_col: str or list of str, optional, default: None
        Index column of table in Spark.
    usecols : list-like or callable, optional
        Return a subset of the columns. If list-like, all elements must either be
        positional (i.e. integer indices into the document columns) or strings that
        correspond to column names provided either by the user in names or inferred
        from the document header row(s).
        If callable, the callable function will be evaluated against the column names,
        returning names where the callable function evaluates to `True`.
    squeeze : bool, default False
        If the parsed data only contains one column then return a Series.

        .. deprecated:: 3.4.0

    mangle_dupe_cols : bool, default True
        Duplicate columns will be specified as 'X0', 'X1', ... 'XN', rather
        than 'X' ... 'X'. Passing in False will cause data to be overwritten if
        there are duplicate names in the columns.
        Currently only `True` is allowed.

        .. deprecated:: 3.4.0

    dtype : Type name or dict of column -> type, default None
        Data type for data or columns. E.g. {‘a’: np.float64, ‘b’: np.int32} Use str or object
        together with suitable na_values settings to preserve and not interpret dtype.
    nrows : int, default None
        Number of rows to read from the CSV file.
    parse_dates : boolean or list of ints or names or list of lists or dict, default `False`.
        Currently only `False` is allowed.
    quotechar : str (length 1), optional
        The character used to denote the start and end of a quoted item. Quoted items can include
        the delimiter and it will be ignored.
    escapechar : str (length 1), default None
        One-character string used to escape other characters.
    comment: str, optional
        Indicates the line should not be parsed.
    encoding: str, optional
        Indicates the encoding to read file
    options : dict
        All other options passed directly into Spark's data source.

    Returns
    -------
    DataFrame or Series

    --------
    DataFrame.to_csv : Write DataFrame to a comma-separated values (csv) file.

        and sets Delta's 'timestampAsOf' option. Note that this parameter and `version` parameter
        cannot be used together, otherwise it will raise a `ValueError`.
    index_col : str or list of str, optional, default: None
        Index column of table in Spark.
    options
        Additional options that can be passed onto Delta.

    Read an Excel file into a pandas-on-Spark DataFrame or Series.

    Support both `xls` and `xlsx` file extensions from a local filesystem or URL.
    Support an option to read a single sheet or a list of sheets.

    Parameters
    ----------
    io : str, file descriptor, pathlib.Path, ExcelFile or xlrd.Book
        The string could be a URL. The value URL must be available in Spark's DataFrameReader.

        .. note::
            If the underlying Spark is below 3.0, the parameter as a string is not supported.
            You can use `ps.from_pandas(pd.read_excel(...))` as a workaround.

    sheet_name : str, int, list, or None, default 0
        Strings are used for sheet names. Integers are used in zero-indexed
        sheet positions. Lists of strings/integers are used to request
        multiple sheets. Specify None to get all sheets.

        Available cases:

        * Defaults to ``0``: 1st sheet as a `DataFrame`
        * ``1``: 2nd sheet as a `DataFrame`
        * ``"Sheet1"``: Load sheet with name "Sheet1"
        * ``[0, 1, "Sheet5"]``: Load first, second and sheet named "Sheet5"
          as a dict of `DataFrame`
        * None: All sheets.

    header : int, list of int, default 0
        Row (0-indexed) to use for the column labels of the parsed
        DataFrame. If a list of integers is passed those row positions will
        be combined into a ``MultiIndex``. Use None if there is no header.
    names : array-like, default None
        List of column names to use. If file contains no header row,
        then you should explicitly pass header=None.
    index_col : int, list of int, default None
        Column (0-indexed) to use as the row labels of the DataFrame.
        Pass None if there is no such column.  If a list is passed,
        those columns will be combined into a ``MultiIndex``.  If a
        subset of data is selected with ``usecols``, index_col
        is based on the subset.
    usecols : int, str, list-like, or callable default None
        Return a subset of the columns.

        * If None, then parse all columns.
        * If str, then indicates comma separated list of Excel column letters
          and column ranges (e.g. "A:E" or "A,C,E:F"). Ranges are inclusive of
          both sides.
        * If list of int, then indicates list of column numbers to be parsed.
        * If list of string, then indicates list of column names to be parsed.
        * If callable, then evaluate each column name against it and parse the
          column if the callable returns ``True``.
    squeeze : bool, default False
        If the parsed data only contains one column then return a Series.

        .. deprecated:: 3.4.0

    dtype : Type name or dict of column -> type, default None
        Data type for data or columns. E.g. {'a': np.float64, 'b': np.int32}
        Use `object` to preserve data as stored in Excel and not interpret dtype.
        If converters are specified, they will be applied INSTEAD
        of dtype conversion.
    engine : str, default None
        If io is not a buffer or path, this must be set to identify io.
        Acceptable values are None or xlrd.
    converters : dict, default None
        Dict of functions for converting values in certain columns. Keys can
        either be integers or column labels, values are functions that take one
        input argument, the Excel cell content, and return the transformed
        content.
    true_values : list, default None
        Values to consider as True.
    false_values : list, default None
        Values to consider as False.
    skiprows : list-like
        Rows to skip at the beginning (0-indexed).
    nrows : int, default None
        Number of rows to parse.
    na_values : scalar, str, list-like, or dict, default None
        Additional strings to recognize as NA/NaN. If dict passed, specific
        per-column NA values. By default the following values are interpreted
        as NaN.
    keep_default_na : bool, default True
        If na_values are specified and keep_default_na is False the default NaN
        values are overridden, otherwise they're appended to.
    verbose : bool, default False
        Indicate number of NA values placed in non-numeric columns.
    parse_dates : bool, list-like, or dict, default False
        The behavior is as follows:

        * bool. If True -> try parsing the index.
        * list of int or names. e.g. If [1, 2, 3] -> try parsing columns 1, 2, 3
          each as a separate date column.
        * list of lists. e.g.  If [[1, 3]] -> combine columns 1 and 3 and parse as
          a single date column.
        * dict, e.g. {{'foo' : [1, 3]}} -> parse columns 1, 3 as date and call
          result 'foo'

        If a column or index contains an unparseable date, the entire column or
        index will be returned unaltered as an object data type. For non-standard
        datetime parsing, use ``pd.to_datetime`` after ``pd.read_csv``

        Note: A fast-path exists for iso8601-formatted dates.
    date_parser : function, optional
        Function to use for converting a sequence of string columns to an array of
        datetime instances. The default uses ``dateutil.parser.parser`` to do the
        conversion. pandas-on-Spark will try to call `date_parser` in three different ways,
        advancing to the next if an exception occurs: 1) Pass one or more arrays
        (as defined by `parse_dates`) as arguments; 2) concatenate (row-wise) the
        string values from the columns defined by `parse_dates` into a single array
        and pass that; and 3) call `date_parser` once for each row using one or
        more strings (corresponding to the columns defined by `parse_dates`) as
        arguments.
    thousands : str, default None
        Thousands separator for parsing string columns to numeric.  Note that
        this parameter is only necessary for columns stored as TEXT in Excel,
        any numeric columns will automatically be parsed, regardless of display
        format.
    comment : str, default None
        Comments out remainder of line. Pass a character or characters to this
        argument to indicate comments in the input file. Any data between the
        comment string and the end of the current line is ignored.
    skipfooter : int, default 0
        Rows at the end to skip (0-indexed).
    convert_float : bool, default True
        Convert integral floats to int (i.e., 1.0 --> 1). If False, all numeric
        data will be read in as floats: Excel stores all numbers as floats
        internally.

        .. deprecated:: 3.4.0

    mangle_dupe_cols : bool, default True
        Duplicate columns will be specified as 'X', 'X.1', ...'X.N', rather than
        'X'...'X'. Passing in False will cause data to be overwritten if there
        are duplicate names in the columns.

        .. deprecated:: 3.4.0

    **kwds : optional
        Optional keyword arguments can be passed to ``TextFileReader``.

    Returns
    -------

    >>> ps.read_excel(open('tmp.xlsx', 'rb'),
    ...               sheet_name='Sheet3')  # doctest: +SKIP
       Unnamed: 0      Name  Value
    0           0   string1      1
    1           1   string2      2
    2           2  #Comment      3

    Index and header can be specified via the `index_col` and `header` arguments

    >>> ps.read_excel('tmp.xlsx', index_col=None, header=None)  # doctest: +SKIP
         0         1      2
    0  NaN      Name  Value

    2  1.0   string2      2
    3  2.0  #Comment      3

    Column types are inferred but can be explicitly specified

    >>> ps.read_excel('tmp.xlsx', index_col=0,
    ...               dtype={'Name': str, 'Value': float})  # doctest: +SKIP

    0   string1    1.0
    1   string2    2.0
    2  #Comment    3.0

    True, False, and NA values, and thousands separators have defaults,
    but can be explicitly specified, too. Supply the values you would like
    as strings or lists of strings!

    >>> ps.read_excel('tmp.xlsx', index_col=0,
    ...               na_values=['string1', 'string2'])  # doctest: +SKIP

    0      None      1
    1      None      2
    2  #Comment      3

    Comment lines in the excel input file can be skipped using the `comment` kwarg

    >>> ps.read_excel('tmp.xlsx', index_col=0, comment='#')  # doctest: +SKIP
          Name  Value
    0  string1    1.0
    1  string2    2.0

    r"""Read HTML tables into a ``list`` of ``DataFrame`` objects.

    Parameters
    ----------
    io : str or file-like
        A URL, a file-like object, or a raw string containing HTML. Note that
        lxml only accepts the http, FTP and file URL protocols. If you have a
        URL that starts with ``'https'`` you might try removing the ``'s'``.

    match : str or compiled regular expression, optional
        The set of tables containing text matching this regex or string will be
        returned. Unless the HTML is extremely simple you will probably need to
        pass a non-empty string here. Defaults to '.+' (match any non-empty
        string). The default value will return all tables contained on a page.
        This value is converted to a regular expression so that there is
        consistent behavior between Beautiful Soup and lxml.

    flavor : str or None, container of strings
        The parsing engine to use. 'bs4' and 'html5lib' are synonymous with
        each other, they are both there for backwards compatibility. The
        default of ``None`` tries to use ``lxml`` to parse and if that fails it
        falls back on ``bs4`` + ``html5lib``.

    header : int or list-like or None, optional
        The row (or list of rows for a :class:`~ps.MultiIndex`) to use to
        make the columns headers.

    index_col : int or list-like or None, optional
        The column (or list of columns) to use to create the index.

    skiprows : int or list-like or slice or None, optional
        0-based. Number of rows to skip after parsing the column integer. If a
        sequence of integers or a slice is given, will skip the rows indexed by
        that sequence.  Note that a single element sequence means 'skip the nth
        row' whereas an integer means 'skip n rows'.

    attrs : dict or None, optional
        This is a dictionary of attributes that you can pass to use to identify
        the table in the HTML. These are not checked for validity before being
        passed to lxml or Beautiful Soup. However, these attributes must be
        valid HTML table attributes to work correctly. For example, ::

            attrs = {'id': 'table'}

        is a valid attribute dictionary because the 'id' HTML tag attribute is
        a valid HTML attribute for *any* HTML tag as per `this document
        <http://www.w3.org/TR/html-markup/global-attributes.html>`__. ::

            attrs = {'asdf': 'table'}

        is *not* a valid attribute dictionary because 'asdf' is not a valid
        HTML attribute even if it is a valid XML attribute.  Valid HTML 4.01
        table attributes can be found `here
        <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/tables.html#h-11.2>`__. A
        working draft of the HTML 5 spec can be found `here
        <http://www.w3.org/TR/html-markup/table.html>`__. It contains the
        latest information on table attributes for the modern web.

    parse_dates : bool, optional
        See :func:`~ps.read_csv` for more details.

    thousands : str, optional
        Separator to use to parse thousands. Defaults to ``','``.

    encoding : str or None, optional
        The encoding used to decode the web page. Defaults to ``None``.``None``
        preserves the previous encoding behavior, which depends on the
        underlying parser library (e.g., the parser library will try to use
        the encoding provided by the document).

    decimal : str, default '.'
        Character to recognize as decimal point (example: use ',' for European
        data).

    converters : dict, default None
        Dict of functions for converting values in certain columns. Keys can
        either be integers or column labels, values are functions that take one
        input argument, the cell (not column) content, and return the
        transformed content.

    na_values : iterable, default None
        Custom NA values

    keep_default_na : bool, default True
        If na_values are specified and keep_default_na is False the default NaN
        values are overridden, otherwise they're appended to

    displayed_only : bool, default True
        Whether elements with "display: none" should be parsed

    unit : string, default None
        unit of the arg (D,s,ms,us,ns) denote the unit, which is an
        integer or float number. This will be based off the origin.
        Example, with unit='ms' and origin='unix' (the default), this

    infer_datetime_format : boolean, default False
        If True and no `format` is given, attempt to infer the format of the
        datetime strings, and if it can be inferred, switch to a faster
        method of parsing them. In some cases this can increase the parsing
        speed by ~5-10x.
    origin : scalar, default 'unix'
        Define the reference date. The numeric values would be parsed as number
        of units (defined by `unit`) since this reference date.

        - If 'unix' (or POSIX) time; origin is set to 1970-01-01.
        - If 'julian', unit must be 'D', and origin is set to beginning of
          Julian Calendar. Julian day number 0 is assigned to the day starting

        - scalar: Timestamp

        In case when it is not possible to return designated types (e.g. when
        any element of input is before Timestamp.min or after Timestamp.max)
        return will have datetime.datetime type (or corresponding
        array/Series).

    Examples
    --------
    Assembling a datetime from multiple columns of a DataFrame. The keys can be
    common abbreviations like ['year', 'month', 'day', 'minute', 'second',
    'ms', 'us', 'ns']) or plurals of the same

    >>> df = ps.DataFrame({'year': [2015, 2016],
    ...                    'month': [2, 3],
    ...                    'day': [4, 5]})
    >>> ps.to_datetime(df)
    0   2015-02-04
    1   2016-03-05
    dtype: datetime64[ns]

    If a date does not meet the `timestamp limitations
    <http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/timeseries.html
    #timeseries-timestamp-limits>`_, passing errors='ignore'
    will return the original input instead of raising any exception.

    Passing errors='coerce' will force an out-of-bounds date to NaT,
    in addition to forcing non-dates (or non-parseable dates) to NaT.

    >>> ps.to_datetime('13000101', format='%Y%m%d', errors='ignore')
    datetime.datetime(1300, 1, 1, 0, 0)
    >>> ps.to_datetime('13000101', format='%Y%m%d', errors='coerce')
    NaT

    Passing infer_datetime_format=True can often-times speedup a parsing
    if its not an ISO8601 format exactly, but in a regular format.

    >>> s = ps.Series(['3/11/2000', '3/12/2000', '3/13/2000'] * 1000)
    >>> s.head()
    0    3/11/2000
    1    3/12/2000
    2    3/13/2000
    3    3/11/2000
    4    3/12/2000
    dtype: object

    >>> import timeit
    >>> timeit.timeit(
    ...    lambda: repr(ps.to_datetime(s, infer_datetime_format=True)),
    ...    number = 1)  # doctest: +SKIP
    0.35832712500000063

    >>> timeit.timeit(
    ...    lambda: repr(ps.to_datetime(s, infer_datetime_format=False)),
    ...    number = 1)  # doctest: +SKIP
    0.8895321660000004

    >>> ps.to_datetime(1490195805, unit='s')
    Timestamp('2017-03-22 15:16:45')

    Examples
    --------
    **Specifying the values**

    The next four examples generate the same `DatetimeIndex`, but vary
    the combination of `start`, `end` and `periods`.

    Specify `start` and `end`, with the default daily frequency.

    >>> ps.date_range(start='1/1/2018', end='1/08/2018')  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
    DatetimeIndex(['2018-01-01', '2018-01-02', '2018-01-03', '2018-01-04',
                   '2018-01-05', '2018-01-06', '2018-01-07', '2018-01-08'],
                  dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    Specify `start` and `periods`, the number of periods (days).

    >>> ps.date_range(start='1/1/2018', periods=8)  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
    DatetimeIndex(['2018-01-01', '2018-01-02', '2018-01-03', '2018-01-04',
                   '2018-01-05', '2018-01-06', '2018-01-07', '2018-01-08'],
                  dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    Specify `end` and `periods`, the number of periods (days).

    >>> ps.date_range(end='1/1/2018', periods=8)  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
    DatetimeIndex(['2017-12-25', '2017-12-26', '2017-12-27', '2017-12-28',
                   '2017-12-29', '2017-12-30', '2017-12-31', '2018-01-01'],
                  dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    Specify `start`, `end`, and `periods`; the frequency is generated
    automatically (linearly spaced).

    >>> ps.date_range(
    ...     start='2018-04-24', end='2018-04-27', periods=3
    ... )  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE

                  dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    **Other Parameters**

    Changed the `freq` (frequency) to ``'M'`` (month end frequency).

    >>> ps.date_range(start='1/1/2018', periods=5, freq='M')  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
    DatetimeIndex(['2018-01-31', '2018-02-28', '2018-03-31', '2018-04-30',
                   '2018-05-31'],
                  dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    Multiples are allowed

    >>> ps.date_range(start='1/1/2018', periods=5, freq='3M')  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
    DatetimeIndex(['2018-01-31', '2018-04-30', '2018-07-31', '2018-10-31',
                   '2019-01-31'],
                  dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    `freq` can also be specified as an Offset object.

    >>> ps.date_range(
    ...     start='1/1/2018', periods=5, freq=pd.offsets.MonthEnd(3)
    ... )  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
    DatetimeIndex(['2018-01-31', '2018-04-30', '2018-07-31', '2018-10-31',
                   '2019-01-31'],
                  dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    `closed` controls whether to include `start` and `end` that are on the
    boundary. The default includes boundary points on either end.

    >>> ps.date_range(
    ...     start='2017-01-01', end='2017-01-04', closed=None
    ... )  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
    DatetimeIndex(['2017-01-01', '2017-01-02', '2017-01-03', '2017-01-04'],
                   dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

    Use ``closed='left'`` to exclude `end` if it falls on the boundary.

    >>> ps.date_range(
    ...     start='2017-01-01', end='2017-01-04', closed='left'

    """
    Convert categorical variable into dummy/indicator variables, also
    known as one hot encoding.

    Parameters
    ----------
    data : array-like, Series, or DataFrame
    prefix : string, list of strings, or dict of strings, default None
        String to append DataFrame column names.
        Pass a list with length equal to the number of columns
        when calling get_dummies on a DataFrame. Alternatively, `prefix`
        can be a dictionary mapping column names to prefixes.
    prefix_sep : string, default '_'
        If appending prefix, separator/delimiter to use. Or pass a
        list or dictionary as with `prefix.`
    dummy_na : bool, default False
        Add a column to indicate NaNs, if False NaNs are ignored.
    columns : list-like, default None
        Column names in the DataFrame to be encoded.
        If `columns` is None then all the columns with
        `object` or `category` dtype will be converted.
    sparse : bool, default False
        Whether the dummy-encoded columns should be be backed by
        a :class:`SparseArray` (True) or a regular NumPy array (False).
        In pandas-on-Spark, this value must be "False".
    drop_first : bool, default False
        Whether to get k-1 dummies out of k categorical levels by removing the
        first level.
    dtype : dtype, default np.uint8
        Data type for new columns. Only a single dtype is allowed.

    Concatenate pandas-on-Spark objects along a particular axis with optional set logic
    along the other axes.

    Parameters
    ----------
    objs : a sequence of Series or DataFrame
        Any None objects will be dropped silently unless
        they are all None in which case a ValueError will be raised
    axis : {0/'index', 1/'columns'}, default 0
        The axis to concatenate along.
    join : {'inner', 'outer'}, default 'outer'
        How to handle indexes on other axis (or axes).
    ignore_index : bool, default False
        If True, do not use the index values along the concatenation axis. The
        resulting axis will be labeled 0, ..., n - 1. This is useful if you are
        concatenating objects where the concatenation axis does not have
        meaningful indexing information. Note the index values on the other
        axes are still respected in the join.
    sort : bool, default False
        Sort non-concatenation axis if it is not already aligned.

    Returns
    -------
    object, type of objs
        When concatenating all ``Series`` along the index (axis=0), a
        ``Series`` is returned. When ``objs`` contains at least one
        ``DataFrame``, a ``DataFrame`` is returned. When concatenating along
        the columns (axis=1), a ``DataFrame`` is returned.

    1   None     NaN     b

    Combine ``DataFrame`` objects with overlapping columns
    and return everything. Columns outside the intersection will
    be filled with ``None`` values.

    Detect missing values for an array-like object.

    This function takes a scalar or array-like object and indicates
    whether values are missing (``NaN`` in numeric arrays, ``None`` or ``NaN``
    in object arrays).

    Parameters
    ----------
    obj : scalar or array-like
        Object to check for null or missing values.

    Returns
    -------
    bool or array-like of bool
        For scalar input, returns a scalar boolean.
        For array input, returns an array of boolean indicating whether each
        corresponding element is missing.

            e.g. if `left` with indices (a, x) and `right` with indices (b, x), the result will

    Parameters
    ----------
    right: Object to merge with.
    how: Type of merge to be performed.
        {'left', 'right', 'outer', 'inner'}, default 'inner'

        left: use only keys from left frame, like a SQL left outer join; preserve key
            order.
        right: use only keys from right frame, like a SQL right outer join; preserve key
            order.
        outer: use union of keys from both frames, like a SQL full outer join; sort keys
            lexicographically.
        inner: use intersection of keys from both frames, like a SQL inner join;
            preserve the order of the left keys.
    on: Column or index level names to join on. These must be found in both DataFrames. If on
        is None and not merging on indexes then this defaults to the intersection of the
        columns in both DataFrames.
    left_on: Column or index level names to join on in the left DataFrame. Can also
        be an array or list of arrays of the length of the left DataFrame.
        These arrays are treated as if they are columns.
    right_on: Column or index level names to join on in the right DataFrame. Can also
        be an array or list of arrays of the length of the right DataFrame.
        These arrays are treated as if they are columns.
    left_index: Use the index from the left DataFrame as the join key(s). If it is a
        MultiIndex, the number of keys in the other DataFrame (either the index or a number of
        columns) must match the number of levels.
    right_index: Use the index from the right DataFrame as the join key. Same caveats as
        left_index.
    suffixes: Suffix to apply to overlapping column names in the left and right side,
        respectively.

        must be given.
    left_on : label
        Field name to join on in left DataFrame.
    right_on : label
        Field name to join on in right DataFrame.
    left_index : bool
        Use the index of the left DataFrame as the join key.
    right_index : bool
        Use the index of the right DataFrame as the join key.
    by : column name or list of column names
        Match on these columns before performing merge operation.
    left_by : column name
        Field names to match on in the left DataFrame.
    right_by : column name
        Field names to match on in the right DataFrame.
    suffixes : 2-length sequence (tuple, list, ...)
        Suffix to apply to overlapping column names in the left and right
        side, respectively.
    tolerance : int or Timedelta, optional, default None
        Select asof tolerance within this range; must be compatible
        with the merge index.
    allow_exact_matches : bool, default True

        - If True, allow matching with the same 'on' value
          (i.e. less-than-or-equal-to / greater-than-or-equal-to)

        Argument to be converted.
    errors : {'raise', 'coerce'}, default 'raise'
