(obviously for x**2 you can do this with pandas vectorized methods that would be even faster but this is just to show the speedup of apply vs list comprehension. Not all functions you want to use in apply have pandas built-in equivalents) ...
With the RAPIDS GPU DataFrame, data can be loaded onto GPUs using a Pandas-like interface, and then used for various connected machine learning and graph analytics algorithms without ever leaving the GPU. This level of interoperability is made possible through libraries like Apache Arrow, and allow...
Julia, R, C#, Scala, C++, Java, etc but you should have expertise in one of them to avoid confusion. Some of the basic concepts that should be mastered are data structures (linked lists, stacks, trees, or queues), preferring vectorized operations instead of loops, and...

Azure Synapse Runtime for Apache Spark 3.3 is now in Public Preview We are excited to announce the preview availability of Apache Spark™ 3.3 on Synapse Analytics. The essential changes include features which come from upgrading Apache Spark to version 3.3.1 and...
One thing you always hear about R is how slow it is, especially when the code is not well vectorized or includes loops. But R is an interpreted language and its strong suit really isn't speed but rather the comparative advantage is the 4,284 packages o..

Pandas is a library for data manipulation and analysis, the python equivalent of R's dplyr. Pandas objects are based on numpy arrays so vectorized options (e.g. apply) over iterative ones offer large performance increases. Objects: series: prices = pd.Series([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], index =...
This order of data processing is called "columnar" in the sense that a dataset may be visualized as a table in which rows are repeated measurements and columns are the different measurable quantities (same layout as Pandas DataFrames). It is also called "vectorized" in that a Single (virtual...
Function 'ifelse' is a vectorized function # that looks at every element of the mpg_z vector and if the value is below # 0, returns 'below', otherwise returns 'above' mtcars.mpg_type = (mtcars.mpg_z < 0).ifelse("below", "above") # order the mtcar data set by the mpg_z ...
