Method: Polars::Functions#max_horizontal

Defined in:
lib/polars/functions/aggregation/horizontal.rb

#max_horizontal(*exprs) ⇒ Expr

Get the maximum value horizontally across columns.

Examples:

df = Polars::DataFrame.new(
  {
    "a" => [1, 8, 3],
    "b" => [4, 5, nil],
    "c" => ["x", "y", "z"]
  }
)
df.with_columns(max: Polars.max_horizontal("a", "b"))
# =>
# shape: (3, 4)
# ┌─────┬──────┬─────┬─────┐
# │ a   ┆ b    ┆ c   ┆ max │
# │ --- ┆ ---  ┆ --- ┆ --- │
# │ i64 ┆ i64  ┆ str ┆ i64 │
# ╞═════╪══════╪═════╪═════╡
# │ 1   ┆ 4    ┆ x   ┆ 4   │
# │ 8   ┆ 5    ┆ y   ┆ 8   │
# │ 3   ┆ null ┆ z   ┆ 3   │
# └─────┴──────┴─────┴─────┘

Parameters:

  • exprs (Array) —
