std::unique_ptr<column> extract_list_element(lists_column_view const &lists_column, size_type index, rmm::cuda_stream_view stream = cudf::get_default_stream(), rmm::device_async_resource_ref mr = cudf::get_current_device_resource_ref())#

Create a column where each row is the element at position index from the corresponding sublist in the input lists_column.

Output column[i] is set from element lists_column[i][index]. If index is larger than the size of the sublist at lists_column[i] then output column[i] = null.

l = { {1, 2, 3}, {4}, {5, 6} }
r = extract_list_element(l, 1)
r is now {2, null, 6}

The index may also be negative in which case the row retrieved is offset from the end of each sublist.

l = { {"a"}, {"b", "c"}, {"d", "e", "f"} }
r = extract_list_element(l, -1)
r is now {"a", "c", "f"}

Any input where lists_column[i] == null will produce output column[i] = null. Also, any element where lists_column[i][index] == null will produce output column[i] = null.

Parameters:

  • lists_column – Column to extract elements from.

  • index – The row within each sublist to retrieve.

  • stream – CUDA stream used for device memory operations and kernel launches.

  • mr – Device memory resource used to allocate the returned column’s device memory.

Returns:

Column of extracted elements.

std::unique_ptr<column> extract_list_element(lists_column_view const &lists_column, column_view const &indices, rmm::cuda_stream_view stream = cudf::get_default_stream(), rmm::device_async_resource_ref mr = cudf::get_current_device_resource_ref())#

Create a column where each row is a single element from the corresponding sublist in the input lists_column, selected using indices from the indices column.

Output column[i] is set from element lists_column[i][indices[i]]. If indices[i] is larger than the size of the sublist at lists_column[i] then output column[i] = null. Similarly, if indices[i] is null, then column[i] = null.

l = { {1, 2, 3}, {4}, {5, 6} }
r = extract_list_element(l, {0, null, 2})
r is now {1, null, null}

indices[i] may also be negative, in which case the row retrieved is offset from the end of each sublist.

l = { {"a"}, {"b", "c"}, {"d", "e", "f"} }
r = extract_list_element(l, {-1, -2, -4})
r is now {"a", "b", null}

Any input where lists_column[i] == null produces output column[i] = null. Any input where lists_column[i][indices[i]] == null produces output column[i] = null.

Parameters:

  • lists_column – Column to extract elements from.

  • indices – The column whose rows indicate the element index to be retrieved from each list row.

  • stream – CUDA stream used for device memory operations and kernel launches.

  • mr – Device memory resource used to allocate the returned column’s device memory.

Throws:

cudf::logic_error – If the sizes of lists_column and indices do not match.

Returns:

Column of extracted elements.
