pub unsafe fn bitmap(
data: &[u8],
offset: usize,
length: usize
) -> Result<BooleanArray, Error>
Expand description
Creates a (non-null) BooleanArray
from a slice of bits.
This does not have memcopy and is the fastest way to create a BooleanArray
.
This can be useful if you want to apply arrow kernels on slices without incurring a memcopy cost.
The offset
indicates where the first bit starts in the first byte.
§Safety
Using this function is not unsafe, but the returned BooleanArrays’s lifetime is bound to the lifetime
of the slice. The returned BooleanArray
must not outlive the passed slice.
