- Fit(data=None, object=None, **generic_arguments)
- DESCRIPTION:
The Fit() function determines whether specified numeric transformations can be
applied to specified "target_columns" and outputs a DataFrame to use as input
"data" for Transform() function, which does the transformations.
PARAMETERS:
data:
Required Argument.
Specifies the input teradataml DataFrame.
Types: teradataml DataFrame
object:
Required Argument.
Specifies the transformation teradataml DataFrame that contains transformation
information for the columns in "data".
Types: teradataml DataFrame
**generic_arguments:
Specifies the generic keyword arguments SQLE functions accept.
Below are the generic keyword arguments:
persist:
Optional Argument.
Specifies whether to persist the results of the function in table or
not. When set to True, results are persisted in table; otherwise,
results are garbage collected at the end of the session.
Default Value: False
Types: boolean
volatile:
Optional Argument.
Specifies whether to put the results of the function in volatile table
or not. When set to True, results are stored in volatile table,
otherwise not.
Default Value: False
Types: boolean
Function allows the user to partition, hash, order or local order the input
data. These generic arguments are available for each argument that accepts
teradataml DataFrame as input and can be accessed as:
* "<input_data_arg_name>_partition_column" accepts str or list of str (Strings)
* "<input_data_arg_name>_hash_column" accepts str or list of str (Strings)
* "<input_data_arg_name>_order_column" accepts str or list of str (Strings)
* "local_order_<input_data_arg_name>" accepts boolean
Note:
These generic arguments are supported by teradataml if the underlying
SQLE Engine function supports, else an exception is raised.
RETURNS:
Instance of Fit.
Output teradataml DataFrames can be accessed using attribute
references, such as FitObj.<attribute_name>.
Output teradataml DataFrame attribute name is:
result
RAISES:
TeradataMlException, TypeError, ValueError
EXAMPLES:
# Notes:
# 1. Get the connection to Vantage, before importing the function in user space.
# 2. User can import the function, if it is available on the Vantage user is connected to.
# 3. To check the list of analytic functions available on the Vantage user connected to,
# use "display_analytic_functions()"
# Load the example data.
load_example_data("teradataml", ["iris_input", "transformation_table"])
# Get connection.
conn = get_context()
# Create teradataml DataFrame objects.
iris_input = DataFrame.from_table("iris_input")
transformation_df = DataFrame.from_table("transformation_table")
# Check the list of available analytic functions.
display_analytic_functions()
# Import function Fit.
from teradataml import Fit
# Example 1: Run Fit() with all arguments.
fit_df = Fit(data=iris_input,
object=transformation_df,
object_order_column='TargetColumn'
)
# Print the result DataFrame.
print(fit_df)
