Python library for creating data pipelines with chain functional programming

Last update: Jan 5, 2023

Overview

PyFunctional

Features

PyFunctional makes creating data pipelines easy by using chained functional operators. Here are a few examples of what it can do:

Chained operators: seq(1, 2, 3).map(lambda x: x * 2).reduce(lambda x, y: x + y)
Expressive and feature complete API
Read and write text, csv, json, jsonl, sqlite, gzip, bz2, and lzma/xz files
Parallelize "embarrassingly parallel" operations like map easily
Complete documentation, rigorous unit test suite, 100% test coverage, and CI which provide robustness

PyFunctional's API takes inspiration from Scala collections, Apache Spark RDDs, and Microsoft LINQ.

Installation

PyFunctional is available on pypi and can be installed by running:

# Install from command line
$ pip install pyfunctional

Then in python run: from functional import seq

Examples

PyFunctional is useful for many tasks, and can natively open several common file types. Here are a few examples of what you can do.

Simple Example

from functional import seq

seq(1, 2, 3, 4)\
    .map(lambda x: x * 2)\
    .filter(lambda x: x > 4)\
    .reduce(lambda x, y: x + y)
# 14

# or if you don't like backslash continuation
(seq(1, 2, 3, 4)
    .map(lambda x: x * 2)
    .filter(lambda x: x > 4)
    .reduce(lambda x, y: x + y)
)
# 14

Streams, Transformations and Actions

PyFunctional has three types of functions:

Streams: read data for use by the collections API.
Transformations: transform data from streams with functions such as map, flat_map, and filter
Actions: These cause a series of transformations to evaluate to a concrete value. to_list, reduce, and to_dict are examples of actions.

In the expression seq(1, 2, 3).map(lambda x: x * 2).reduce(lambda x, y: x + y), seq is the stream, map is the transformation, and reduce is the action.

Filtering a list of account transactions

from functional import seq
from collections import namedtuple

Transaction = namedtuple('Transaction', 'reason amount')
transactions = [
    Transaction('github', 7),
    Transaction('food', 10),
    Transaction('coffee', 5),
    Transaction('digitalocean', 5),
    Transaction('food', 5),
    Transaction('riotgames', 25),
    Transaction('food', 10),
    Transaction('amazon', 200),
    Transaction('paycheck', -1000)
]

# Using the Scala/Spark inspired APIs
food_cost = seq(transactions)\
    .filter(lambda x: x.reason == 'food')\
    .map(lambda x: x.amount).sum()

# Using the LINQ inspired APIs
food_cost = seq(transactions)\
    .where(lambda x: x.reason == 'food')\
    .select(lambda x: x.amount).sum()

# Using PyFunctional with fn
from fn import _
food_cost = seq(transactions).filter(_.reason == 'food').map(_.amount).sum()

Aggregates and Joins

The account transactions example could be done easily in pure python using list comprehensions. To show some of the things PyFunctional excels at, take a look at a couple of word count examples.

words = 'I dont want to believe I want to know'.split(' ')
seq(words).map(lambda word: (word, 1)).reduce_by_key(lambda x, y: x + y)
# [('dont', 1), ('I', 2), ('to', 2), ('know', 1), ('want', 2), ('believe', 1)]

In the next example we have chat logs formatted in json lines (jsonl) which contain messages and metadata. A typical jsonl file will have one valid json on each line of a file. Below are a few lines out of examples/chat_logs.jsonl.

{"message":"hello anyone there?","date":"10/09","user":"bob"}
{"message":"need some help with a program","date":"10/09","user":"bob"}
{"message":"sure thing. What do you need help with?","date":"10/09","user":"dave"}

from operator import add
import re
messages = seq.jsonl('examples/chat_logs.jsonl')

# Split words on space and normalize before doing word count
def extract_words(message):
    return re.sub('[^0-9a-z ]+', '', message.lower()).split(' ')


word_counts = messages\
    .map(lambda log: extract_words(log['message']))\
    .flatten().map(lambda word: (word, 1))\
    .reduce_by_key(add).order_by(lambda x: x[1])

Next, lets continue that example but introduce a json database of users from examples/users.json. In the previous example we showed how PyFunctional can do word counts, in the next example lets show how PyFunctional can join different data sources.

# First read the json file
users = seq.json('examples/users.json')
#[('sarah',{'date_created':'08/08','news_email':True,'email':'[email protected]'}),...]

email_domains = users.map(lambda u: u[1]['email'].split('@')[1]).distinct()
# ['yahoo.com', 'python.org', 'gmail.com']

# Join users with their messages
message_tuples = messages.group_by(lambda m: m['user'])
data = users.inner_join(message_tuples)
# [('sarah',
#    (
#      {'date_created':'08/08','news_email':True,'email':'[email protected]'},
#      [{'date':'10/10','message':'what is a...','user':'sarah'}...]
#    )
#  ),...]

# From here you can imagine doing more complex analysis

CSV, Aggregate Functions, and Set functions

In examples/camping_purchases.csv there are a list of camping purchases. Lets do some cost analysis and compare it the required camping gear list stored in examples/gear_list.txt.

purchases = seq.csv('examples/camping_purchases.csv')
total_cost = purchases.select(lambda row: int(row[2])).sum()
# 1275

most_expensive_item = purchases.max_by(lambda row: int(row[2]))
# ['4', 'sleeping bag', ' 350']

purchased_list = purchases.select(lambda row: row[1])
gear_list = seq.open('examples/gear_list.txt').map(lambda row: row.strip())
missing_gear = gear_list.difference(purchased_list)
# ['water bottle','gas','toilet paper','lighter','spoons','sleeping pad',...]

In addition to the aggregate functions shown above (sum and max_by) there are many more. Similarly, there are several more set like functions in addition to difference.

Reading/Writing SQLite3

PyFunctional can read and write to SQLite3 database files. In the example below, users are read from examples/users.db which stores them as rows with columns id:Int and name:String.

db_path = 'examples/users.db'
users = seq.sqlite3(db_path, 'select * from user').to_list()
# [(1, 'Tom'), (2, 'Jack'), (3, 'Jane'), (4, 'Stephan')]]

sorted_users = seq.sqlite3(db_path, 'select * from user order by name').to_list()
# [(2, 'Jack'), (3, 'Jane'), (4, 'Stephan'), (1, 'Tom')]

Writing to a SQLite3 database is similarly easy

import sqlite3
from collections import namedtuple

with sqlite3.connect(':memory:') as conn:
    conn.execute('CREATE TABLE user (id INT, name TEXT)')
    conn.commit()
    User = namedtuple('User', 'id name')
    
    # Write using a specific query
    seq([(1, 'pedro'), (2, 'fritz')]).to_sqlite3(conn, 'INSERT INTO user (id, name) VALUES (?, ?)')
    
    # Write by inserting values positionally from a tuple/list into named table
    seq([(3, 'sam'), (4, 'stan')]).to_sqlite3(conn, 'user')
    
    # Write by inferring schema from namedtuple
    seq([User(name='tom', id=5), User(name='keiga', id=6)]).to_sqlite3(conn, 'user')
    
    # Write by inferring schema from dict
    seq([dict(name='david', id=7), dict(name='jordan', id=8)]).to_sqlite3(conn, 'user')
    
    # Read everything back to make sure it wrote correctly
    print(list(conn.execute('SELECT * FROM user')))
    
    # [(1, 'pedro'), (2, 'fritz'), (3, 'sam'), (4, 'stan'), (5, 'tom'), (6, 'keiga'), (7, 'david'), (8, 'jordan')]

Writing to files

Just as PyFunctional can read from csv, json, jsonl, sqlite3, and text files, it can also write them. For complete API documentation see the collections API table or the official docs.

Compressed Files

PyFunctional will auto-detect files compressed with gzip, lzma/xz, and bz2. This is done by examining the first several bytes of the file to determine if it is compressed so therefore requires no code changes to work.

To write compressed files, every to_ function has a parameter compression which can be set to the default None for no compression, gzip or gz for gzip compression, lzma or xz for lzma compression, and bz2 for bz2 compression.

Parallel Execution

The only change required to enable parallelism is to import from functional import pseq instead of from functional import seq and use pseq where you would use seq. The following operations are run in parallel with more to be implemented in a future release:

map/select
filter/filter_not/where
flat_map

Parallelization uses python multiprocessing and squashes chains of embarrassingly parallel operations to reduce overhead costs. For example, a sequence of maps and filters would be executed all at once rather than in multiple loops using multiprocessing

Documentation

Shortform documentation is below and full documentation is at docs.pyfunctional.org.

Streams API

All of PyFunctional streams can be accessed through the seq object. The primary way to create a stream is by calling seq with an iterable. The seq callable is smart and is able to accept multiple types of parameters as shown in the examples below.

# Passing a list
seq([1, 1, 2, 3]).to_set()
# [1, 2, 3]

# Passing direct arguments
seq(1, 1, 2, 3).map(lambda x: x).to_list()
# [1, 1, 2, 3]

# Passing a single value
seq(1).map(lambda x: -x).to_list()
# [-1]

seq also provides entry to other streams as attribute functions as shown below.

# number range
seq.range(10)

# text file
seq.open('filepath')

# json file
seq.json('filepath')

# jsonl file
seq.jsonl('filepath')

# csv file
seq.csv('filepath')
seq.csv_dict_reader('filepath')

# sqlite3 db and sql query
seq.sqlite3('filepath', 'select * from data')

For more information on the parameters that these functions can take, reference the streams documentation

Lazy Execution

Whenever possible, PyFunctional will compute lazily. This is accomplished by tracking the list of transformations that have been applied to the sequence and only evaluating them when an action is called. In PyFunctional this is called tracking lineage. This is also responsible for the ability for PyFunctional to cache results of computation to prevent expensive re-computation. This is predominantly done to preserve sensible behavior and used sparingly. For example, calling size() will cache the underlying sequence. If this was not done and the input was an iterator, then further calls would operate on an expired iterator since it was used to compute the length. Similarly, repr also caches since it is most often used during interactive sessions where its undesirable to keep recomputing the same value. Below are some examples of inspecting lineage.

def times_2(x):
    return 2 * x

elements = (
   seq(1, 1, 2, 3, 4)
      .map(times_2)
      .peek(print)
      .distinct()
)

elements._lineage
# Lineage: sequence -> map(times_2) -> peek(print) -> distinct

l_elements = elements.to_list()
# Prints: 1
# Prints: 1
# Prints: 2
# Prints: 3
# Prints: 4

elements._lineage
# Lineage: sequence -> map(times_2) -> peek(print) -> distinct -> cache

l_elements = elements.to_list()
# The cached result is returned so times_2 is not called and nothing is printed

Files are given special treatment if opened through the seq.open and related APIs. functional.util.ReusableFile implements a wrapper around the standard python file to support multiple iteration over a single file object while correctly handling iteration termination and file closing.

About me

To learn more about me (the author) visit my webpage at pedro.ai.

I created PyFunctional while using Python extensively, and finding that I missed the ease of use for manipulating data that Spark RDDs and Scala collections have. The project takes the best ideas from these APIs as well as LINQ to provide an easy way to manipulate data when using Scala is not an option or PySpark is overkill.

Comments

Parallel Execution Engine

Creating issue to discuss potential of implementing a parallel execution engine. From the 0.5.0 milestone this might include:

The first possibility is to abstract the execution engine away so that ScalaFunctional can use either a sequential or parallel execution engine. This would need to be done through a combination of multiprocessing and determining where it could be used without creating massive code duplication. Additionally, this would require writing completely new tests and infrastructure since order is not guaranteed, but expected in the current sequential tests.

`grouped` Forces pre-compute of sequence

The current implementation of grouped

def grouped_impl(wrap, size, sequence):
    """
    Implementation for grouped_t
    :param wrap: wrap children values with this
    :param size: size of groups
    :param sequence: sequence to group
    :return: grouped sequence
    """
    for i in range(0, len(sequence), size):
        yield wrap(sequence[i:i + size])

seems computing the whole sequence to apply len(sequence). Am I correct?

I find my code like bellow doesn't print anything to the console.

(
    seq(fp_of_very_large_file)
        .map(parse_func)
        .grouped(1)
        .for_each(print)
)

Once I dropped .grouped(1), the console showed data.

Insert into sqlite3

Initial implementation to sqlite3. Currently it behaves like to_csv, only accepts tuple or structure as element. Insertion SQL must be supplied and target table must be created in advance.

I'm still considering how to insert dict.

`tail` differing from the Scala version

From documentation: "Selects all elements except the first."

Your version: "get last element".

Any good reason behind it? I can change it to the former, and also implement stuff like inits and tails.

support compression in File I/O functions

I could be usefull if stream functions like seq.open, seq.csv etc can read compressed files like Spark sc.textFile.

Also writing a compressed file by to_file, to_csv etc is great.

Fix for the grouped() and to_csv() functions
Closes #120 and #121 by making the following changes:

Fixes #120: added list() to the function "group_impl"'s yield

Fixes #121: added the argument "newline" to the function to_csv() and to the universal_write_open()

I have ran the tests on my Windows machine at work and all are passing. Will check on my linux after reaching home.

Test on pypy2/3 plus irrelevant bug on tests discovered by the build

Tests succeed on pypy2/3 (thus added to travis) except for some tests on sets that were accidentally written as deterministic. (I fixed them in the same PR to keep the build clean)

By the way, while set(seq('abc')) gives the expected in the shell, in tests I get an empty set and can only use .the set() method. Probably assertSetEqual(result, set(expected)) doesn't work for the same reason.

Looks to me like a bug you may want to investigate.

Implement functions with generators

Re-implement/change all the functions in the library to be compatible with generators. Currently, sequential calls to transformations produces a new list between each transformation even if it is only used for the next transformation, not in the result. This is wasteful and could be eliminated using generators.

Targeting this to be the large (potentially breaking, hopefully not though) feature of 0.2.0 while 0.1.7 will be used to add more utility functions.

for_each doesn't return the original sequence but returns None
I would have expected for_each(func) to apply the func function but to also return the unmodified sequence.

Eg I would expect the following code, not to fail(as it happens in my case):

l = (seq([1, 2, 3, 4]) .for_each(print) .map(lambda x: x + 1)) print(l)

But to produce:

1 2 3 4 [2, 3, 4, 5]

My fix: was to modify in functional/pipeline.py for_each to return self

Add accumulate to Sequence
Change Summary

add accumulate method to Sequence

mirrors itertools.accumulate API

Why

The alternative is to use fold_left and then drop the initial value. I believe creating a running sum is a common enough operation to warrent its own implementation.

In [1]: from functional import seq In [2]: seq(1, 2, 3).fold_left([0], lambda acc, curr: acc + [acc[-1] + curr]).tail() Out[2]: [1, 3, 6]

versus

In [1]: from functional import seq In [2]: seq(1, 2, 3).accumulate() Out[2]: [1, 3, 6]

Implement data passing functions

So far the only way to ingest data into ScalaFunctional is to read through using python defined data structures. It would be helpful to be able to read directly from data formats such as json/sql/csv.

Target milestone for everything completed will be 0.4.0.

This issue will serve as a parent issue for implementing each specific function.

Add the split transformation
Hello everyone,

This is my first PR ever, but I'm willing to learn, so don't hesitate to be picky.

I was doing the advent of code 2022 with a constraint to use only Pyfunctional so that I could learn the library. I was blocked on the first problem because I felt it was missing a split function.

The goal of such a function is to take a sequence and split it into several lists given a function. The function maps over the sequence and splits if it returns True or continues if it returns False. An example is worth a million words, so here it is:

seq([1,2,3,None,4,5,6,7,None,8,9]).split(lambda x: x is None) >>> seq([ [1,2,3], [4,5,6,7], [8,9] ])

I tried to respect the rules for PR, but if I missed something feel free to comment ;)

Have a good day!

More dictionary/tuple list helpers

Out of curiosity, I was wondering why there aren't filter/value equivalents of functions that operate on a list of tuples, eg filter_by_key, group_by_value, or map_values. As one use case, It'd be great to have more support for operations after calling group_by.

I really enjoy using Pyfunctional, and I'm happy to contribute if there are no blockers here!

[Question] VSCode language server doesn't see the pyfunctional package

Hello,

I've noticed that in visual studio code the inteligent indexer/autocomplete functionality(I think provided by Jedi) isn't able to see pyfunctional (at least on my setup).

By this I mean it doesn't see any of the imported objects and it doesn't see "functional" as a package. Clicking on a function/module from other packages takes me directly to their source code but for pyfunctional nothing is happening.

Running and debugging works fine so the module is installed correctly, but something is bugging VsCode.

While this is more of an issue related to VsCode/Jedi I was wondering if anybody else is experiencing this or if this is something maybe related to a strange combination of packages that I might have in my enviroment.

I've tried this on two different machines and got the same behavior.

Thanks!

Cache to file and auto-load from cache
It would be awesome if there was an easy way to cache results to a file and if the cache was found then load from the cache without recomputing.

To basically support the following usecase/api

# main.py def expensive_function(x): """Consider an expensive to compute function""" print(x, end=" ") return x**2 s = seq([x for x in range(4)], cache_dir="/path/to/cache/dir") expensive_result = s.map(expensive_function)\ .with_caching(name="expensive_result") expensive_result.for_each(lambda x: print(f"\n", x, end=""))

$ python main.py 0 1 2 3 0 1 4 9

Second run (the first run should have created the cache file which will now be used instead of recomputing the sequence expensive_result):

$ python main.py 0 1 4 9

Please let me know if you have any questions or would like some clarifications.

Loving the project so far, thanks for your effort!

seq() converts pandas DataFrame into Sequence
from functional import seq from pandas import DataFrame df = DataFrame({'col1': [1,2,3], 'col2': [4,5,6]}) s = seq([df]) el = s.first() print(type(el))

this code prints: "<class 'functional.pipeline.Sequence'>" but the expected output is "<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>"

lazy_parallellize having trouble with function context?
I'm using a function defined in the current file in pseq, and seems it errors out not being able to find other referenced functions or even simple types like Dict. This works fine when using seq.

I think the problem is with pickling the target function in lazy_parallelize:

partitions = split_every(partition_size, iter(result)) packed_partitions = (pack(func, (partition,)) for partition in partitions) for pool_result in pool.imap(unpack, packed_partitions): yield pool_result pool.terminate()

I executed on my own the function with pool.imap and works fine.

Wouldn't it be better not to use pickling to avoid these kind of problems?

v1.0.0(Feb 2, 2017)
Reaching 1.0 primarily means that API stability has been reached so I don't expect to run into many new breaking changes. The library is also relatively feature complete at this point almost two years after the first commit (February 5, 2015).

This release includes several new minor features and usability improvements in jupyter notebook environments

New Features

Added optional initial value for reduce (https://github.com/EntilZha/PyFunctional/issues/86)

Added table of contents to readme (https://github.com/EntilZha/PyFunctional/issues/88)

Added data interchange tutorial with pandas (https://github.com/EntilZha/PyFunctional/blob/master/examples/PyFunctional-pandas-tutorial.ipynb)

Implemented itertools.starmap as Sequence.starmap and Sequence.smap (https://github.com/EntilZha/PyFunctional/issues/90)

Added interface to csv.DictReader via seq.csv_dict_reader (https://github.com/EntilZha/PyFunctional/issues/92)

Improved _html_repr_, show and tabulate by auto detecting named tuples as column names (https://github.com/EntilZha/PyFunctional/issues/91)

Improved _html_repr_ and show to tell the user 10 of N rows are being shown if there are more than 10 rows (https://github.com/EntilZha/PyFunctional/issues/94)

v0.6.0(Mar 30, 2016)
Largest changes in this release are adding SQLite support and changing the project name to PyFunctional.

Name Change

Details can be found in the RFC issue. On PyPI, 0.6.0 was published as PyFunctional and ScalaFunctional to support transition to new name. Overall, name change better suits the package as it is about functional programming with python, even if it is inspired by Scala/Spark.

New Features

Added support for reading to and from SQLite databases with seq.sqlite3

Added to_pandas call integration

Internal Changes

Changed code quality check service

v0.5.0(Jan 1, 2016)
Release 0.5.0 is a few new features and bug fixes grouped into a release.

Breaking Changes

Sequence.zip_with_index has modified behavior to extend usability and conform to scala/spark APIs which breaks prior compatibility. The drop in replacement to fix this issue in code bases upgrading to 0.5.0 is changing zip_with_index to enumerate.

New Features

Delimiter option on to_file

Sequence.sliding for sliding windows over sequence of elements

Internal Changes

Changed relative imports to absolute imports

Bug Fixes

_wrap incorrectly converted tuples to arrays

to_file documentation fixed

Prior mentioned zip_with_index in breaking changes

v0.4.1(Nov 4, 2015)
The primary goals of this release were to:

Support reading and writing data from files in common formats

Improve LINQ support

Reading and Writing text, json, jsonl, and csv

The large feature additions of this release include functions to natively read and write from text, json, jsonl, and csv files. Details on the issue can be found at #19. The examples on the README.md page illustrate how these can be used and their usefulness. A full list of changes can be found in CHANGELOG.md or the copy of it at the bottom of the release notes.

LINQ

In doing research I found that a common use case where ScalaFunctional could be helpful is in doing LINQ-like data manipulation. To better serve this group of users functions like select and where were added, and documentation was improved to cover this use case.

Breaking Changes

The bug detailed at #44 exposed that fold_left and fold_right was using the passed function incorrectly. This was corrected, but is a breaking change to all prior versions.

0.4.1 enum34 Removed

In the release of 0.4.0 a issue was found where the wheel built with python2 contained enum34 which broke the python3 installation. If it were built with python3, then it would not include enum34 causing problems with python2. The solution was to remove enum34 and use vanilla python instead.

Changelog

Release 0.4.0

New Features

Official and tested support for python 3.5. Thus ScalaFunctional is tested on Python 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, pypy, and pypy3

aggregate from LINQ

order_by from LINQ

where from LINQ

select from LINQ

average from LINQ

sum modified to allow LINQ projected sum

product modified to allow LINQ projected product

seq.jsonl to read jsonl files

seq.json to read json files

seq.open to read files

seq.csv to read csv files

seq.range to create range sequences

Sequence.to_jsonl to save jsonl files

Sequence.to_json to save json files

Sequence.to_file to save files

Sequence.to_csv to save csv files

Improved documentation with more examples and mention LINQ explicitly

Change PyPi keywords to improve discoverability

Created Google groups mailing list

Bug Fixes

fold_left and fold_right had incorrect order of arguments for passed function

Release 0.4.1

Fix python 3 build error due to wheel installation of enum34. Package no longer depends on enum34

v0.4.0(Nov 4, 2015)

Refer to the release notes for 0.4.1 for summary of changes in 0.4.0. Both versions are nearly identical with 0.4.1 being a hotfix to a pip install issue on python 3

v0.3.1(Jul 22, 2015)
This is a very minor release which adds distinct_by to the API. distinct_by takes a single identity function as argument. The returned sequence is unique by the identity function and consists of the first element found for each identity key. Code example below:

from functional import seq seq([(1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 3), (4, 5), (0, 1), (0, 0)]).distinct_by(lambda x: x[0]) # [(0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3), (4, 5)]

v0.3.0(Jun 9, 2015)
The primary goal of this release was to improve performance of longer data pipelines. Additionally, there were additional API additions and several minor breaking changes.

Performance Improvements

The largest under the hood change is changing all operations to be lazy by default. 0.2.0 calculates a new list at every transformation. This was initially implemented using generators, but this could lead to unexpected behavior. The problem with this approach is highlighted in #20. Code sample below:

from functional import seq def gen(): for e in range(5): yield e nums = gen() s = seq(nums) s.map(lambda x: x * 2).sum() # prints 20 s.map(lambda x: x * 2).sum() # prints 0 s = seq([1, 2, 3, 4]) a = s.map(lambda x: x * 2) a.sum() # prints 20 a.sum() # prints 0

Either, ScalaFunctional would need to aggressively cache results or a new approach was needed. That approach is called lineage. The basic concept is that ScalaFunctional:

Tracks the most recent concrete data (eg list of objects)

Tracks the list of transformations that need to be applied to the list to find the answer

Whenever an expression is evaluated, the result is cached for (1) and returned

The result is the problems above are fixed, below is an example showing how the backend calculates results:

from functional import seq In [8]: s = seq(1, 2, 3, 4) In [9]: s._lineage Out[9]: Lineage: sequence In [10]: s0 = s.map(lambda x: x * 2) In [11]: s0._lineage Out[11]: Lineage: sequence -> map(<lambda>) In [12]: s0 Out[12]: [2, 4, 6, 8] In [13]: s0._lineage Out[13]: Lineage: sequence -> map(<lambda>) -> cache

Note how initially, since the expression is not evaluated, it is not cached. Since printing s0 in the repl calls __repr__, it is evaluated and cached so it is not recomputed if s0 is used again. You can also call cache() directly if desired. You may also notice that seq can now take a list of arguments like list (added in #27).

Next up

Improvements in documentation and redo of README.md. Next release will be focused on extending ScalaFunctional further to work with other data input/output and more usability improvements. This release also marks relative stability in the collections API. Everything that seemed worth porting from Scala/Spark has been completed with a few additions (predominantly left, right, inner, and outer joins). There aren't currently any foreseeable breaking changes.

v0.2.0(Mar 23, 2015)
The primary goal of this release was to implement a number of functions which were missing from the ScalaFunctional library.

Features

Comprehensive documentation for every function, with examples

Set-like manipulation: union, intersection, difference, symmetric_difference

Joins: join list of (Key, Value) pairs using inner, outer, left, and right joins

Added many different functions for taking/dropping elements in sequence

Extended min/max with min_by and max_by

Extended attribute access to check if attribute exists on sequence before erroring

With these changes, the API is both stable and reasonably complete. The goal is to support all major operations from Scala arrays and Spark. That goal seems to be complete.

Next Release

The next release (small or larger version) will be focused on improving performance using generators and extending the API if necessary.
