pyobj_col
The pyobj_col method creates a column containing Python objects.
note
This method is commonly used with new_table to create tables.
caution
The pyobj_col method is significantly slower than other methods that create columns. When creating a column with data of one type, use the corresponding specialized method (e.g., for ints, use int_col).
Syntax
pyobj_col(name: str, data: Sequence[Any]) -> InputColumn
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| name | str | The name of the new column. |
| data | Sequence[Any] | The column values. Must be a sequence of Python objects. |
Returns
An InputColumn.
Example
The following examples use new_table to create a table with a single column of Python objects named Values.
from deephaven import new_table
from deephaven.column import pyobj_col
result = new_table([pyobj_col("Values", ["a", 1, -5.5])])
- result
