- teradataml.dataframe.sql.DataFrameColumn.sqrt = sqrt()
- DESCRIPTION:
Function computes the square root of the values in a column.
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. For more information on implicit type conversion,
see Teradata Vantage™ Data Types and Literals.
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)
