Classes for data manipulation
Project description
Python Classes for Data Manipulation
dataiter currently includes the following classes.
DataFrame
is a class for tabular data similar to R's data.frame
or pandas.DataFrame
. It is under the hood a dictionary of NumPy arrays
and thus capable of fast vectorized operations. You can consider this to
be a very experimental, very light-weight alternative to Pandas with a
simple and consistent API. Performance-wise dataiter relies on NumPy and
is likely to be at best comparable to Pandas.
ListOfDicts
is a class useful for manipulating data from JSON
APIs. It provides functionality similar to libraries such as
Underscore.js, with manipulation functions that iterate over the data
and return a shallow modified copy of the original. attd.AttributeDict
is used to provide convenient access to dictionary keys.
GeoJSON
is a simple wrapper class that allows reading a GeoJSON
file into a DataFrame
and writing a data frame to a GeoJSON file. Any
operations on the data are thus done with methods provided by the data
frame class. Geometry is read as-is into the "geometry" column, but no
special geometric operations are currently supported.
