Find all players with the longest winning streak

I am trying to crack the problem of finding the player(s) with the longest streak of winning using Python's 3.2. I am only able to work out an unscalable solution, but I could not come up with a better one yet. Can anyone please help me with a better solution? Also, I am curious how to adapt such solution to output the player(s) with the longest winning streak per month or year?

Below is the sample dataframe players_results

Player_id     Match_Date             Match_Result
401           2021-05-04 00:00:00    W
401           2021-05-09 00:00:00    L
401           2021-05-16 00:00:00    W
401           2021-05-18 00:00:00    W
401           2021-05-22 00:00:00    L
401           2021-06-15 00:00:00    L
401           2021-06-16 00:00:00    W
401           2021-06-18 00:00:00    W
402           2021-05-14 00:00:00    L
402           2021-05-23 00:00:00    L
402           2021-05-24 00:00:00    W
402           2021-06-01 00:00:00    W
402           2021-06-02 00:00:00    W
402           2021-07-01 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-03 00:00:00    L
403           2021-05-11 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-12 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-13 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-20 00:00:00    W
403           2021-05-25 00:00:00    W
403           2021-07-06 00:00:00    L
404           2021-05-10 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-16 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-20 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-22 00:00:00    W
404           2021-05-28 00:00:00    L
405           2021-05-07 00:00:00    L
405           2021-05-25 00:00:00    W
405           2021-06-06 00:00:00    L
405           2021-06-07 00:00:00    W
405           2021-06-14 00:00:00    W
405           2021-07-01 00:00:00    W

Expected Output

player_id     longest_winningstreak
403           5

My unscalable code

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
