def apply(self, func, axis=0, raw=False, result_type=None, args=(), **kwds):
“””
Apply a function along an axis of the DataFrame.
func：该函数最有用的参数，这个参数是函数，相当于C/C++的函数指针。
这个函数需要自己实现，函数的传入参数（其实就是函数的自变量集）根据axis来定，比如axis = 1，就会把一行数据作为Series的数据结构传入给自己实现的函数中，我们在函数中实现对Series不同属性之间的计算，返回一个结果，则apply函数会自动遍历每一行DataFrame的数据，最后将所有结果组合成一个Series数据结构并返回。
例子下文有；
Objects passed to the function are Series objects whose index is
either the DataFrame's index (``axis=0``) or the DataFrame's columns
(``axis=1``). By default (``result_type=None``), the final return type
is inferred from the return type of the applied function. Otherwise,
it depends on the `result_type` argument.
Parameters
----------
func : function
Function to apply to each column or row.
axis : {0 or 'index', 1 or 'columns'}, default 0
Axis along which the function is applied:
* 0 or 'index': apply function to each column.
* 1 or 'columns': apply function to each row.
raw : bool, default False
Determines if row or column is passed as a Series or ndarray object:
* ``False`` : passes each row or column as a Series to the
function.
* ``True`` : the passed function will receive ndarray objects
instead.
If you are just applying a NumPy reduction function this will
achieve much better performance.
result_type : {'expand', 'reduce', 'broadcast', None}, default None
These only act when ``axis=1`` (columns):
* 'expand' : list-like results will be turned into columns.
* 'reduce' : returns a Series if possible rather than expanding
list-like results. This is the opposite of 'expand'.
* 'broadcast' : results will be broadcast to the original shape
of the DataFrame, the original index and columns will be
retained.
The default behaviour (None) depends on the return value of the
applied function: list-like results will be returned as a Series
of those. However if the apply function returns a Series these
are expanded to columns.
.. versionadded:: 0.23.0
args : tuple
Positional arguments to pass to `func` in addition to the
array/series.
**kwds
Additional keyword arguments to pass as keywords arguments to
`func`.
Returns
-------
Series or DataFrame
Result of applying ``func`` along the given axis of the
DataFrame.
See Also
--------
DataFrame.applymap: For elementwise operations.
DataFrame.aggregate: Only perform aggregating type operations.
DataFrame.transform: Only perform transforming type operations.
Examples
--------
>>> df = pd.DataFrame([[4, 9]] * 3, columns=['A', 'B'])
>>> df
A B
0 4 9
1 4 9
2 4 9
Using a numpy universal function (in this case the same as
``np.sqrt(df)``):
>>> df.apply(np.sqrt)
A B
0 2.0 3.0
1 2.0 3.0
2 2.0 3.0
Using a reducing function on either axis
>>> df.apply(np.sum, axis=0)
A 12
B 27
dtype: int64
>>> df.apply(np.sum, axis=1)
0 13
1 13
2 13
dtype: int64
Returning a list-like will result in a Series
>>> df.apply(lambda x: [1, 2], axis=1)
0 [1, 2]
1 [1, 2]
2 [1, 2]
dtype: object
Passing result_type='expand' will expand list-like results
to columns of a Dataframe
>>> df.apply(lambda x: [1, 2], axis=1, result_type='expand')
0 1
0 1 2
1 1 2
2 1 2
Returning a Series inside the function is similar to passing
``result_type='expand'``. The resulting column names
will be the Series index.
>>> df.apply(lambda x: pd.Series([1, 2], index=['foo', 'bar']), axis=1)
foo bar
0 1 2
1 1 2
2 1 2
Passing ``result_type='broadcast'`` will ensure the same shape
result, whether list-like or scalar is returned by the function,
and broadcast it along the axis. The resulting column names will
be the originals.
>>> df.apply(lambda x: [1, 2], axis=1, result_type='broadcast')
A B
0 1 2
1 1 2
2 1 2
