BUG: dot on Arrow Dataframes/Series produces a Numpy object result · Issue #53979 · pandas-dev/pandas (original) (raw)

Pandas version checks

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd

Dataframe

cols = ["a", "b"] df_a = pd.DataFrame( [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]], columns=cols, dtype="float[pyarrow]" ) df_b = pd.DataFrame([[1, 0], [0, 1]], index=cols, dtype="float[pyarrow]") df_c = df_a.dot(df_b)

print("input") print(df_a.dtypes) print(df_b.dtypes) print("output") print(df_c.dtypes)

Series

s_a = pd.Series([1, 2], index=cols, dtype="float[pyarrow]") s_b = df_a.dot(s_a)

print("input") print(s_a.dtypes) print("output") print(s_b.dtypes)

Issue Description

When applying dot onto 2 elements that use Arrow contents, the result produced contains Numpy objects. This applies to DataFrame and Series

Expected Behavior

I would expect result DataFrame/Series to contain Arrow elements. My current workaround is to cast it back to Arrow using .astype("float[pyarrow]").

I'm usure if this function should be supported or not. I didn't find any documentation about it, maybe I missed it. Is there any place to track the integration of Arrow into Pandas ?
