Description
Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> pd.__version__
'1.0.2'
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, None], "B":[4, 5], "C": [7, 8]})
>>> df.rolling(min_periods=1, window=2, axis=1).sum()
A B C
0 1.0 4.0 11.0
1 NaN 5.0 13.0
>>> df.T.rolling(min_periods=1, window=2).sum().T
A B C
0 1.0 5.0 11.0
1 NaN 5.0 13.0
Problem description
In the above example, I would expect that rolling from one axis or transposing and rolling from the other axis give the same result. This is true when there is no missing value in the dataframe. However, here there is a missing value the value at position .loc[0, "B"] ends up being different.
In the first case the value is not summed with the value at .loc[0, "A"], but in the second case it is. I think this may be an issue because I would expect to get the same output in both cases.
I observed this both in pandas 1.0.1 and 1.0.2.
Expected Output
>>> df.rolling(min_periods=1, window=2, axis=1).sum()
A B C
0 1.0 5.0 11.0
1 NaN 5.0 13.0
>>> df.T.rolling(min_periods=1, window=2).sum().T
A B C
0 1.0 5.0 11.0
1 NaN 5.0 13.0
or
>>> df.rolling(min_periods=1, window=2, axis=1).sum()
A B C
0 1.0 4.0 11.0
1 NaN 5.0 13.0
>>> df.T.rolling(min_periods=1, window=2).sum().T
A B C
0 1.0 4.0 11.0
1 NaN 5.0 13.0
Output of pd.show_versions()
>>> pd.show_versions()
