std::unique_ptr<column> sort_lists(lists_column_view const &source_column, order column_order, null_order null_precedence, rmm::cuda_stream_view stream = cudf::get_default_stream(), rmm::mr::device_memory_resource *mr = rmm::mr::get_current_device_resource())#

Segmented sort of the elements within a list in each row of a list column.

source_column with depth 1 is only supported.

  • source_column            : [{4, 2, 3, 1}, {1, 2, NULL, 4}, {-10, 10, 0}]

Ascending,  Null After   : [{1, 2, 3, 4}, {1, 2, 4, NULL}, {-10, 0, 10}]
Ascending,  Null Before  : [{1, 2, 3, 4}, {NULL, 1, 2, 4}, {-10, 0, 10}]
Descending, Null After   : [{4, 3, 2, 1}, {NULL, 4, 2, 1}, {10, 0, -10}]
Descending, Null Before  : [{4, 3, 2, 1}, {4, 2, 1, NULL}, {10, 0, -10}]

Parameters:

  • source_column – View of the list column of numeric types to sort

  • column_order – The desired sort order

  • null_precedence – The desired order of null compared to other elements in the list

  • stream – CUDA stream used for device memory operations and kernel launches

  • mr – Device memory resource to allocate any returned objects

Returns:

list column with elements in each list sorted.

std::unique_ptr<column> stable_sort_lists(lists_column_view const &source_column, order column_order, null_order null_precedence, rmm::cuda_stream_view stream = cudf::get_default_stream(), rmm::mr::device_memory_resource *mr = rmm::mr::get_current_device_resource())#

Segmented sort of the elements within a list in each row of a list column using stable sort.

Segmented sort of the elements within a list in each row of a list column. source_column with depth 1 is only supported.

  • source_column            : [{4, 2, 3, 1}, {1, 2, NULL, 4}, {-10, 10, 0}]

Ascending,  Null After   : [{1, 2, 3, 4}, {1, 2, 4, NULL}, {-10, 0, 10}]
Ascending,  Null Before  : [{1, 2, 3, 4}, {NULL, 1, 2, 4}, {-10, 0, 10}]
Descending, Null After   : [{4, 3, 2, 1}, {NULL, 4, 2, 1}, {10, 0, -10}]
Descending, Null Before  : [{4, 3, 2, 1}, {4, 2, 1, NULL}, {10, 0, -10}]

Parameters:

  • source_column – View of the list column of numeric types to sort

  • column_order – The desired sort order

  • null_precedence – The desired order of null compared to other elements in the list

  • stream – CUDA stream used for device memory operations and kernel launches

  • mr – Device memory resource to allocate any returned objects

Returns:

list column with elements in each list sorted.
