cummax
Return cumulative maximum over a DataFrame or Series axis.
Returns a DataFrame or Series of the same size containing the cumulative maximum.
Note
the current implementation of cummax uses Spark’s Window without specifying partition specification. This leads to moveing all data into a single partition in a single machine and could cause serious performance degradation. Avoid this method with very large datasets.
Exclude NA/null values. If an entire row/column is NA, the result will be NA.

Examples
>>> df = ps.DataFrame([[2.0, 1.0], [3.0, None], [1.0, 0.0]], columns=list('AB')) >>> df A B 0 2.0 1.0 1 3.0 NaN 2 1.0 0.0
By default, iterates over rows and finds the maximum in each column.
>>> df.cummax() A B 0 2.0 1.0 1 3.0 NaN 2 3.0 1.0
It works identically in Series.
>>> df.B.cummax() 0 1.0 1 NaN 2 1.0 Name: B, dtype: float64
