[tommycarstensen]

Feature Type

• Adding new functionality to pandas

• Changing existing functionality in pandas

• Removing existing functionality in pandas

Problem Description

I suggest adding options first_inverted and last_inverted as keep options to function pandas.DataFrame.duplicated. Below an example of how it would work and what it would return.

df = pd.DataFrame({
'brand': ['Yum Yum', 'Yum Yum', 'Yum Yum', 'Indomie', 'Indomie', 'Indomie'],
'style': ['cup', 'cup', 'cup', 'cup', 'pack', 'pack'],
'rating': [4, 4, 4, 3.5, 15, 5],
})

df.duplicated(keep='first_inverted')

0 True
1 False
2 False
3 False
4 False
5 False
dtype: bool

Is this request the same as doing df.duplicated(keep=False) & ~df.duplicated(keep="first")?
