pub fn apply_multiple<F, E>(
function: F,
expr: E,
output_type: SpecialEq<Arc<dyn FunctionOutputField>>,
returns_scalar: bool,
) -> Expr
Expand description
Apply a function/closure over the groups of multiple columns. This should only be used in a group_by aggregation.
It is the responsibility of the caller that the schema is correct by giving the correct output_type. If None given the output type of the input expr is used.
This difference with [map_mul]
is that [apply_mul]
will create a separate [Series]
per group.
[map_mul]
should be used for operations that are independent of groups, e.g.multiply * 2
, orraise to the power
[apply_mul]
should be used for operations that work on a group of data. e.g.sum
,count
, etc.
