teradataml-plus

Python Package that extends the functionality of the popular teradataml package through monkey-patching. This is to use field-developed assets more naturally with the existing interface.

Installation

• pip install teradataml-plus

Quickstart

#always import teradata-plus (tdmlplus) first
import tdmlplus

#then import teradataml. It will have all the additional functionality
import teradataml as tdml

# one additional function is for instance to get a correlation matrix straight from the DataFrame, just like in pandas

DF = tdml.DataFrame("some_table")
DF_corr = DF.corr() # not possible withot tdmlplus
