Use the head() function to print the first n rows of a teradataml Series.

The function takes the optional argument n, and prints the first n number of rows. The default value for n is 10.

The Series object is sorted on the column. The column type must support sorting.

Unsupported types include: 'BLOB', 'CLOB''.

Example: Print default number of rows

This example prints the default 10 rows of Series "gpa":
>>> df = DataFrame("admissions_train")
>>> gpa = df.select(["gpa"]).squeeze()
>>> gpa.head()
