I have a data analysis pipeline built in Google Colab python(3.6) notebook. Whenever I try to display the pandas(0.23.4) Data Frame inline I get the following error:

TypeError: init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'max_rows'

The only thing it seems to solve the problem is to create a new colab notebook. (file > new notebook). But even then it eventually ends up with the same issue after using it a while.

Also, important to note that the Data Frame works properly for calculations and accessing the values. It seems to be an issue displaying it.

df.head()

Results in:

The expected results is to have the Data Frame displayed in a html table.

You could try to use IPython display (see number 3 from here)

from IPython import display
display(df.head())

Alternatively, add these 2 lines to your imports and you don't need display (explanation here)

from IPython.core.interactiveshell import InteractiveShell
InteractiveShell.ast_node_interactivity = "all"

df.head()
