xarray.core.accessor_str.StringAccessor.partition

StringAccessor.partition(dim, sep=' ')

Split the strings in the DataArray at the first occurrence of separator sep.

This method splits the string at the first occurrence of sep, and returns 3 elements containing the part before the separator, the separator itself, and the part after the separator. If the separator is not found, return 3 elements containing the string itself, followed by two empty strings.

If sep is array-like, it is broadcast against the array and applied elementwise.

Parameters

• dim (hashable or None) – Name for the dimension to place the 3 elements in. If None, place the results as list elements in an object DataArray.

• sep (str or bytes or array-like, default: " ") – String to split on. If array-like, it is broadcast.

Returns

partitioned (same type as values or object array)
