Read Primitives — String Substring

Read Primitives benchmark · all Read Primitives queries

String substring extraction

Representative SQL

Rendered for DataFusion with default parameters.

SELECT
c_custkey,
SUBSTRING(c_phone FROM 1 FOR 3) AS country_code
FROM customer
LIMIT 100

Representative DataFrame

Expression family (Polars, PySpark, DataFusion), default parameters.

def string_substring_expression_impl(ctx: DataFrameContext) -> Any:
return (
ctx.get_table("customer")
.select(ctx.col("c_custkey"), ctx.col("c_phone").str.slice(0, 3).alias("country_code"))
.limit(100)
)

Get the exact query for your run

The blocks above are representative. To get the precise statement a specific platform runs at a specific scale, substitute your own values:

from benchbox import ReadPrimitives
bench = ReadPrimitives(scale_factor=0.01) # your scale factor
queries = bench.get_queries(dialect="datafusion") # your platform's dialect; drop dialect= for native SQL
print(queries['string_substring'])

For the DataFrame form:

from benchbox.core.query_catalog import get_dataframe_render
print(get_dataframe_render('read_primitives', 'string_substring', family="expression").source) # or family="pandas"
