ibis.case

ibis.case()

Similar to the .case method on array expressions, create a case builder that accepts self-contained boolean expressions (as opposed to expressions which are to be equality-compared with a fixed value expression)

Use the .when method on the resulting object followed by .end to create a complete case.

Examples

>>> import ibis
>>> cond1 = ibis.literal(1) == 1
>>> cond2 = ibis.literal(2) == 1
>>> result1 = 3
>>> result2 = 4
>>> expr = (ibis.case()
...         .when(cond1, result1)
...         .when(cond2, result2).end())

Returns

case
