    Parameters
    ----------
    pat : str
        Valid regular expression.
    flags : int, default 0, meaning no flags
        Flags for the `re` module. For a complete list, `see here
        <https://docs.python.org/3/howto/regex.html#compilation-flags>`_.
    **kwargs
        For compatibility with other string methods. Not used.

    Notes
    -----
    Some characters need to be escaped when passing in `pat`.
    eg. ``'$'`` has a special meaning in regex and must be escaped when
    finding this literal character.

    Examples
    --------

    contained within a string of a Series or Index.

    Parameters
    ----------
    pat : str
        Character sequence or regular expression.
    case : bool, default True
        If True, case sensitive.
    flags : int, default 0 (no flags)
        Flags to pass through to the re module, e.g. re.IGNORECASE.
    na : default NaN

    -------
    Series or Index of boolean values
        A Series or Index of boolean values indicating whether the

    Series.str.endswith : Same as startswith, but tests the end of string.

    Examples
    --------

    Returning a Series of booleans using only a literal pattern.

    >>> s1 = pd.Series(['Mouse', 'dog', 'house and parrot', '23', np.NaN])

    0    False
    1    False
    2    False
    3    False
    4      NaN
    dtype: object

    Specifying `na` to be `False` instead of `NaN` replaces NaN values
    with `False`. If Series or Index does not contain NaN values
    the resultant dtype will be `bool`, otherwise, an `object` dtype.

    >>> s1.str.contains('og', na=False, regex=True)

    1     True
    2     True
    3    False
    4      NaN

    Ignoring case sensitivity using `flags` with regex.

    >>> import re

    0    False
    1    False

    1    False
    2    False
    3     True
    4      NaN

    Ensure `pat` is a not a literal pattern when `regex` is set to True.
    Note in the following example one might expect only `s2[1]` and `s2[3]` to
    return `True`. However, '.0' as a regex matches any character
    followed by a 0.

    Parameters
    ----------
    pat : str or compiled regex
        String can be a character sequence or regular expression.

    Returns
    -------
    Series or Index of object
        A copy of the object with all matching occurrences of `pat` replaced by
        `repl`.

    Raises
    ------
    ValueError
        * if `regex` is False and `repl` is a callable or `pat` is a compiled
          regex
        * if `pat` is a compiled regex and `case` or `flags` is set

    Notes
    -----
    When `pat` is a compiled regex, all flags should be included in the
    compiled regex. Use of `case`, `flags`, or `regex=False` with a compiled
    regex will raise an error.

    Examples
    --------
    When `pat` is a string and `regex` is True (the default), the given `pat`
    is compiled as a regex. When `repl` is a string, it replaces matching
    regex patterns as with :meth:`re.sub`. NaN value(s) in the Series are
    left as is:

    >>> pd.Series(['foo', 'fuz', np.nan]).str.replace('f.', 'ba', regex=True)
    0    bao
    1    baz
    2    NaN
    dtype: object

    When `pat` is a string and `regex` is False, every `pat` is replaced with
    `repl` as with :meth:`str.replace`:

    >>> pd.Series(['f.o', 'fuz', np.nan]).str.replace('f.', 'ba', regex=False)
    0    bao
    1    fuz
    2    NaN
    dtype: object

    When `repl` is a callable, it is called on every `pat` using
    :func:`re.sub`. The callable should expect one positional argument
    (a regex object) and return a string.

    To get the idea:

    Parameters
    ----------
    pat : str
        Regular expression pattern with capturing groups.
    flags : int, default 0 (no flags)
        Flags from the ``re`` module, e.g. ``re.IGNORECASE``, that
        modify regular expression matching for things like case,

    expand : bool, default True
        If True, return DataFrame with one column per capture group.
        If False, return a Series/Index if there is one capture group
        or DataFrame if there are multiple capture groups.

    Returns
    -------
    DataFrame or Series or Index
        A DataFrame with one row for each subject string, and one
        column for each group. Any capture group names in regular
        expression pat will be used for column names; otherwise

        is an Index).

    See Also
    --------
    extractall : Returns all matches (not just the first match).

    Examples

    Parameters
    ----------
    pat : str
        Regular expression pattern with capturing groups.
    flags : int, default 0 (no flags)
        A ``re`` module flag, for example ``re.IGNORECASE``. These allow

        etc. Multiple flags can be combined with the bitwise OR operator,
        for example ``re.IGNORECASE | re.MULTILINE``.

    Returns
    -------
    DataFrame
        A ``DataFrame`` with one row for each match, and one column for each
        group. Its rows have a ``MultiIndex`` with first levels that come from
        the subject ``Series``. The last level is named 'match' and indexes the
        matches in each item of the ``Series``. Any capture group names in
        regular expression pat will be used for column names; otherwise capture
        group numbers will be used.

    See Also
    --------

    2          []

    On the other hand, the search for the pattern 'MONKEY' doesn't return any
    match:

    >>> s.str.findall('MONKEY')
    0    []
    1    []
    2    []

    Flags can be added to the pattern or regular expression. For instance,
    to find the pattern 'MONKEY' ignoring the case:

    >>> import re
    >>> s.str.findall('MONKEY', flags=re.IGNORECASE)
    0          []
    1    [Monkey]
    2          []

    When the pattern matches more than one string in the Series, all matches
    are returned:

    >>> s.str.findall('on')
    0    [on]
    1    [on]
    2      []
    dtype: object

    Regular expressions are supported too. For instance, the search for all the
    strings ending with the word 'on' is shown next:

    >>> s.str.findall('on$')
    0    [on]
    1      []
    2      []
    dtype: object

    If the pattern is found more than once in the same string, then a list of
    multiple strings is returned:

    >>> s.str.findall('b')
    0        []
    1        []

    break_on_hyphens : bool, optional
        If True, wrapping will occur preferably on whitespace and right after
        hyphens in compound words, as it is customary in English. If false,
        only whitespaces will be considered as potentially good places for line

def forbid_nonstring_types(forbidden, name=None):
    """
    Decorator to forbid specific types for a method of StringMethods.

    For calling `.str.{method}` on a Series or Index, it is necessary to first
    initialize the :class:`StringMethods` object, and then call the method.
    However, different methods allow different input types, and so this can not
    be checked during :meth:`StringMethods.__init__`, but must be done on a
    per-method basis. This decorator exists to facilitate this process, and
    make it explicit which (inferred) types are disallowed by the method.

    :meth:`StringMethods.__init__` allows the *union* of types its different
    methods allow (after skipping NaNs; see :meth:`StringMethods._validate`),
    namely: ['string', 'empty', 'bytes', 'mixed', 'mixed-integer'].

    The default string types ['string', 'empty'] are allowed for all methods.
    For the additional types ['bytes', 'mixed', 'mixed-integer'], each method
    then needs to forbid the types it is not intended for.

    Parameters
    ----------
    forbidden : list-of-str or None
        List of forbidden non-string types, may be one or more of
        `['bytes', 'mixed', 'mixed-integer']`.
    name : str, default None
        Name of the method to use in the error message. By default, this is
        None, in which case the name from the method being wrapped will be
        copied. However, for working with further wrappers (like _pat_wrapper
        and _noarg_wrapper), it is necessary to specify the name.

    Returns
    -------
    func : wrapper
        The method to which the decorator is applied, with an added check that
        enforces the inferred type to not be in the list of forbidden types.

        Concatenate strings in the Series/Index with given separator.

        If `others` is not passed, then all values in the Series/Index are

        Parameters
        ----------
        others : Series, Index, DataFrame, np.ndarray or list-like
            Series, Index, DataFrame, np.ndarray (one- or two-dimensional) and

        sep : str, default ''
            The separator between the different elements/columns. By default
            the empty string `''` is used.
        na_rep : str or None, default None
            Representation that is inserted for all missing values:

            - If `na_rep` is None, and `others` is None, missing values in the
              Series/Index are omitted from the result.
            - If `na_rep` is None, and `others` is not None, a row containing a
              missing value in any of the columns (before concatenation) will
              have a missing value in the result.
        join : {'left', 'right', 'outer', 'inner'}, default 'left'
            Determines the join-style between the calling Series/Index and any
            Series/Index/DataFrame in `others` (objects without an index need
            to match the length of the calling Series/Index). To disable
            alignment, use `.values` on any Series/Index/DataFrame in `others`.

            .. versionadded:: 0.23.0
            .. versionchanged:: 1.0.0
                Changed default of `join` from None to `'left'`.

        Returns
        -------
        str, Series or Index
            If `others` is None, `str` is returned, otherwise a `Series/Index`
            (same type as caller) of objects is returned.

        See Also
        --------
        split : Split each string in the Series/Index.
        join : Join lists contained as elements in the Series/Index.

        Examples
        --------
        When not passing `others`, all values are concatenated into a single
        string:

        >>> s = pd.Series(['a', 'b', np.nan, 'd'])
        >>> s.str.cat(sep=' ')
        'a b d'

        By default, NA values in the Series are ignored. Using `na_rep`, they
        can be given a representation:

        >>> s.str.cat(sep=' ', na_rep='?')
        'a b ? d'

        If `others` is specified, corresponding values are concatenated with
        the separator. Result will be a Series of strings.

        >>> s.str.cat(['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'], sep=',')
        0    a,A
        1    b,B
        2    NaN
        3    d,D
        dtype: object

        Missing values will remain missing in the result, but can again be
        represented using `na_rep`

        >>> s.str.cat(['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'], sep=',', na_rep='-')
        0    a,A
        1    b,B
        2    -,C
        3    d,D
        dtype: object

        If `sep` is not specified, the values are concatenated without
        separation.

        >>> s.str.cat(['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'], na_rep='-')
        0    aA
        1    bB
        2    -C
        3    dD
        dtype: object

        Series with different indexes can be aligned before concatenation. The
        `join`-keyword works as in other methods.

        >>> t = pd.Series(['d', 'a', 'e', 'c'], index=[3, 0, 4, 2])
        >>> s.str.cat(t, join='left', na_rep='-')
        0    aa
        1    b-
        2    -c
        3    dd
        dtype: object
        >>>
        >>> s.str.cat(t, join='outer', na_rep='-')
        0    aa
        1    b-
        2    -c
        3    dd
        4    -e
        dtype: object
        >>>
        >>> s.str.cat(t, join='inner', na_rep='-')
        0    aa
        2    -c
        3    dd

    Split strings around given separator/delimiter.

    Splits the string in the Series/Index from the %(side)s,
    at the specified delimiter string. Equivalent to :meth:`str.%(method)s`.

    Parameters
    ----------
    pat : str, optional
        String or regular expression to split on.
        If not specified, split on whitespace.
    n : int, default -1 (all)
        Limit number of splits in output.
        ``None``, 0 and -1 will be interpreted as return all splits.
    expand : bool, default False
        Expand the splitted strings into separate columns.

        * If ``True``, return DataFrame/MultiIndex expanding dimensionality.
        * If ``False``, return Series/Index, containing lists of strings.

    Returns
    -------
    Series, Index, DataFrame or MultiIndex
        Type matches caller unless ``expand=True`` (see Notes).

    See Also
    --------
    Series.str.split : Split strings around given separator/delimiter.
    Series.str.rsplit : Splits string around given separator/delimiter,
        starting from the right.
    Series.str.join : Join lists contained as elements in the Series/Index
        with passed delimiter.
    str.split : Standard library version for split.
    str.rsplit : Standard library version for rsplit.

    Notes
    -----
    The handling of the `n` keyword depends on the number of found splits:

    - If found splits > `n`,  make first `n` splits only
    - If found splits <= `n`, make all splits
    - If for a certain row the number of found splits < `n`,
      append `None` for padding up to `n` if ``expand=True``

    If using ``expand=True``, Series and Index callers return DataFrame and
    MultiIndex objects, respectively.

    Examples

    dtype: object

    In the default setting, the string is split by whitespace.

    >>> s.str.split()

    dtype: object

    Without the `n` parameter, the outputs of `rsplit` and `split`
    are identical.

    >>> s.str.rsplit()

    dtype: object

    The `n` parameter can be used to limit the number of splits on the
    delimiter. The outputs of `split` and `rsplit` are different.

    >>> s.str.split(n=2)
    0                     [this, is, a regular sentence]

    dtype: object

    The `pat` parameter can be used to split by other characters.

    >>> s.str.split(pat = "/")
    0                         [this is a regular sentence]
    1    [https:, , docs.python.org, 3, tutorial, index...
    2                                                  NaN
    dtype: object

    When using ``expand=True``, the split elements will expand out into
    separate columns. If NaN is present, it is propagated throughout
    the columns during the split.

    >>> s.str.split(expand=True)
                                                   0     1     2        3

    For slightly more complex use cases like splitting the html document name
    from a url, a combination of parameter settings can be used.

    **Checks for Alphabetic and Numeric Characters**

    >>> s1 = pd.Series(['one', 'one1', '1', ''])

    >>> s1.str.isalpha()
    0     True

    2     True

    Note that checks against characters mixed with any additional punctuation
    or whitespace will evaluate to false for an alphanumeric check.

    **More Detailed Checks for Numeric Characters**

    There are several different but overlapping sets of numeric characters that
    can be checked for.

    >>> s3 = pd.Series(['23', '³', '⅕', ''])

    The ``s3.str.isdecimal`` method checks for characters used to form numbers
    in base 10.

    >>> s3.str.isdecimal()
    0     True
    1    False
    2    False
    3    False
    dtype: bool

    The ``s.str.isdigit`` method is the same as ``s3.str.isdecimal`` but also
    includes special digits, like superscripted and subscripted digits in
    unicode.

    >>> s3.str.isdigit()
    0     True
    1     True
    2    False
    3    False
    dtype: bool

    The ``s.str.isnumeric`` method is the same as ``s3.str.isdigit`` but also
    includes other characters that can represent quantities such as unicode
    fractions.

    >>> s3.str.isnumeric()
    0     True
    1     True
    2     True
    3    False
    dtype: bool

    **Checks for Whitespace**

    >>> s4 = pd.Series([' ', '\\t\\r\\n ', ''])
    >>> s4.str.isspace()
    0     True
    1     True
    2    False
    dtype: bool

    **Checks for Character Case**

    >>> s5 = pd.Series(['leopard', 'Golden Eagle', 'SNAKE', ''])

    >>> s5.str.islower()
    0     True
    1    False
    2    False
    3    False
    dtype: bool

    >>> s5.str.isupper()
    0    False
    1    False
    2     True
    3    False
    dtype: bool

    The ``s5.str.istitle`` method checks for whether all words are in title
    case (whether only the first letter of each word is capitalized). Words are
    assumed to be as any sequence of non-numeric characters separated by
    whitespace characters.

    >>> s5.str.istitle()
