piso.interval.symmetric_difference

piso.interval.symmetric_difference(interval1, interval2, squeeze=True)

Performs the symmetric difference of two pandas.Interval

Parameters

interval1pandas.Interval

the first operand

interval2pandas.Interval

the second operand

squeezeboolean, default True

If True, will try to coerce the return value to a pandas.Interval

Returns

pandas.Interval or pandas.arrays.IntervalArray

Examples

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> import piso.interval

>>> piso.interval.symmetric_difference(
...    pd.Interval(0, 3),
...    pd.Interval(2, 4),
... )
<IntervalArray>
[(0.0, 2.0], (3.0, 4.0]]
Length: 2, closed: right, dtype: interval[float64]

>>> piso.interval.symmetric_difference(
...    pd.Interval(0, 3),
...    pd.Interval(2, 3),
... )
