select_var#

SingleCell.select_var(*exprs, **named_exprs)[source]#

Equivalent to df.select() from polars, but applied to var. var_names will be automatically included as the first column, if not included explicitly.

Parameters:
  • *exprs: Scalar

    column(s) to select, specified as positional arguments. Accepts expression input. Strings are parsed as column names, other non-expression inputs are parsed as literals.

  • **named_exprs: Scalar

    additional columns to select, specified as keyword arguments. The columns will be renamed to the keyword used.

Returns:

A new SingleCell dataset with var=var.select(*exprs, **named_exprs), and var_names as the first column unless already included explicitly.

Return type:
