Add describe() for LazyFrame #13928
Comments
Just |
But what if the Dataframe is so big that it wouldn't fit in memory? |
Fair enough - that seems like a valid use case. I'll re-open to see what others have to say. |
Yup, I think it's worthwhile - I can see that there are plenty of cases where you don't want to materialise GBs of data into a local frame just to run |
"looks pretty lazy!" sounds like an accurate description to me, can we just return that? |
Description
Currently
describe
is not implemented for lazyframes, and you have to first materialize into a Dataframe before being able to calldescribe
, however all methods called into describe seem to be supported by Lazyframe:polars.LazyFrame.count
polars.LazyFrame.max
polars.LazyFrame.mean
polars.LazyFrame.median
polars.LazyFrame.min
polars.LazyFrame.null_count
polars.LazyFrame.quantile
polars.LazyFrame.std
polars.LazyFrame.sum
polars.LazyFrame.var
so why don't we allow LazyFrame.describe() ?
