pandas.arrays.IntegerArray.take — pandas 0.24.2 documentation (original) (raw)

IntegerArray. take(indexer, allow_fill=False, fill_value=None)[source]¶

Take elements from an array.

Parameters:	indices : sequence of integers Indices to be taken. allow_fill : bool, default False How to handle negative values in indices. False: negative values in indices indicate positional indices from the right (the default). This is similar tonumpy.take(). True: negative values in indices indicate missing values. These values are set to fill_value. Any other other negative values raise a ValueError. fill_value : any, optional Fill value to use for NA-indices when allow_fill is True. This may be None, in which case the default NA value for the type, self.dtype.na_value, is used. For many ExtensionArrays, there will be two representations offill_value: a user-facing “boxed” scalar, and a low-level physical NA value. fill_value should be the user-facing version, and the implementation should handle translating that to the physical version for processing the take if necessary.
Returns:	ExtensionArray
Raises:	IndexError When the indices are out of bounds for the array. ValueError When indices contains negative values other than -1and allow_fill is True.

Parameters:

indices : sequence of integers Indices to be taken. allow_fill : bool, default False How to handle negative values in indices. False: negative values in indices indicate positional indices from the right (the default). This is similar tonumpy.take(). True: negative values in indices indicate missing values. These values are set to fill_value. Any other other negative values raise a ValueError. fill_value : any, optional Fill value to use for NA-indices when allow_fill is True.

For many ExtensionArrays, there will be two representations offill_value: a user-facing “boxed” scalar, and a low-level physical NA value. fill_value should be the user-facing version, and the implementation should handle translating that to the physical version for processing the take if necessary.

Returns:

ExtensionArray

Raises:

IndexError When the indices are out of bounds for the array. ValueError When indices contains negative values other than -1and allow_fill is True.

Notes

ExtensionArray.take is called by Series.__getitem__, .loc,iloc, when indices is a sequence of values. Additionally, it’s called by Series.reindex(), or any other method that causes realignment, with a fill_value.

Examples

Here’s an example implementation, which relies on casting the extension array to object dtype. This uses the helper methodpandas.api.extensions.take().

def take(self, indices, allow_fill=False, fill_value=None): from pandas.core.algorithms import take

# If the ExtensionArray is backed by an ndarray, then
# just pass that here instead of coercing to object.
data = self.astype(object)

if allow_fill and fill_value is None:
    fill_value = self.dtype.na_value

# fill value should always be translated from the scalar
# type for the array, to the physical storage type for
# the data, before passing to take.

result = take(data, indices, fill_value=fill_value,
              allow_fill=allow_fill)
return self._from_sequence(result, dtype=self.dtype)
