Convert epoch to the week day without for loop

With the help of the following code I can define day of the week out of epoch:

epoch = 4464769126
day = time.strftime('%A', time.localtime(epoch))
print(day)

Friday

I have applied it to the column in df.epoch with the for loop, but it is time consuming. Any ideas how to speed up the process?

you do this using pandas to_datetime function like below

import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({"epoch": ["4464769126"]})

pd.to_datetime(df["epoch"], unit="s").dt.weekday_name
