I want to Calculate the differece between two consecutive "Date" in datetime.index coloumn.

I tried by using below code, but it’s not working if difference between two dates is big.
Code-

df['date'] = df.index.day  #Extract day from datetime.index
df['difference'] = df['date'].diff()
df

Output

             Open       High        Low          Close     Volume   Currency    date    difference

Pls let me know solution to calculate the Date difference in Days between two consecutive rows in pandas

>Solution :

If need count values per Currency use DataFrameGroupBy.diff:

df['difference'] = df.index.to_series().groupby(df['Currency']).diff().dt.days

If need without groups use Series.diff:

df['difference'] = df.index.to_series().diff().dt.days
