cpyquickhelper.fastdata.pandas2numpy.df2array(df, check=True)

Converts a dataframe into a numpy.array without copying. pandas is merging consecutive columns sharing the same type into one memory block. The function can be used only if the data is stored in one block and one type as a consequence.

Parameters:
  • df – dataframe

  • check – verifies the operation can be done (True) or skip verification (False)

Returns:

numpy.array

See data member, _data.

cpyquickhelper.fastdata.pandas2numpy.df2arrays(df, sep=',', check=True)

Converts a dataframe into a list of a list of tuple (column name, :epkg:`numpy:array`) without copying. pandas is merging consecutive columns sharing the same type into one memory block. That’s what the function extracts

Parameters:
  • df – dataframe

  • check – verifies the operation can be done (True) or skip verification (False)

  • sep – columns separator

Returns:

a list of tuple (column, array)

Example:

<<<

from pandas import DataFrame
from cpyquickhelper.fastdata import df2arrays

df = DataFrame([dict(a=3.4, b=5.6, c="e"),
                dict(a=3.5, b=5.7, c="r")])
arr = df2arrays(df)
print(arr)

>>>

    [('a,b', array([[3.4, 3.5],
           [5.6, 5.7]])), ('c', array([['e', 'r']], dtype=object))]
