This pull request enhances the Pandas documentation by improving the explanation of how to iterate over a
GroupByobject in the user guide.The previous description was brief and slightly unclear for new contributors and users learning group operations.
The updated section clearly explains that iteration yields
(key, group)pairs and provides a concise example to illustrate this behavior.What Was Changed
doc/source/user_guide/groupby.rstwith a clearer explanation describing
