Hi all is it possible to get part of the day (morning, noon, afternoon, ...) directly from datetime column in a dataframe using Pandas? For example for day of the week it's possible to do:

df['weekday']= df.date.dt.day_name()

and it returns: Monday, Tuesday, ... Is there something similar available in Pandas for part of the day? For example:

df['part of day']= df.date.dt.day_part()

Notice: I am not looking for an answer like this link which you write the function yourself: Get part of day (morning, afternoon, evening, night) in Python dataframe

@instinct246 I gave day name as an example. I know how to get it. I want to know if you can get part of the day as well – Holden Caulfield Jan 28 '20 at 12:04
@DvirCohen I know about that solution, one can always write functions, I wanted to know if there is something in Pandas – Holden Caulfield Jan 28 '20 at 12:08
