Display options are controlled by pandas

Options for display are inherited from pandas. This includes commonly accessed options such as:

• display.max_columns

• display.max_info_rows

• display.max_rows

• display.max_seq_items

For example, to show all rows of a DataFrame or Series in a Jupyter notebook, call pandas.set_option("display.max_rows", None).

Available options

You can get a list of available options and their descriptions with describe_option(). When called with no argument describe_option() will print out the descriptions for all available options.
