awkward_pandas.accessor.AwkwardAccessor.to_columns#

AwkwardAccessor.to_columns(cull: bool = True, extract_all: bool = False, awkward_name: str = 'awkward-data') → DataFrame[source]#

Extract columns from an awkward series

Where the series is a record type, each field may become a regular pandas column.

Parameters:

  • cull (bool) – For those columns that we convert into regular ones, remove them from the original awkward series if True

  • extract_all (bool) – If False (default), only extract columns that can turn into normal pandas columns. If True, all columns will be extracted, but those that cannot be converted retain “awkward” type

  • awkward_name (str) – If there are leftover columns in the original series, in the resultant dataframe, these leftovers will get this column name

Return type:

pd.DataFrame
