- teradataml.dataframe.sql.DataFrameColumn.sin = sin()
- DESCRIPTION:
Function computes the sine value of the values in column.
The sine of an angle is the ratio of two sides of a right triangle.
The ratio is the length of the side opposite to the angle divided
by the length of the hypotenuse.
The sine of argument returns values in radians in the range -1 to 1, inclusive.
NOTES:
1. If the type of the column is not FLOAT, column values are converted to FLOAT
based on implicit type conversion rules. If the value cannot be converted, an
error is reported.
2. Unsupported column types:
a. BYTE or VARBYTE
b. LOBs (BLOB or CLOB)
c. CHARACTER or VARCHAR if the server character set is GRAPHIC
RAISES:
TypeError, ValueError, TeradataMlException
RETURNS:
DataFrameColumn
EXAMPLES:
# Load the data to execute the example.
>>> load_example_data("dataframe", "admissions_train")
# Create a DataFrame on 'admissions_train' table.
>>> df = DataFrame("admissions_train").iloc[:4]
>>> print(df)
