| \description{ |
| A \code{ChunkedArray} is a data structure managing a list of |
| primitive Arrow \link[=Array]{Arrays} logically as one large array. Chunked arrays |
| may be grouped together in a \link{Table}. |
| } |
| \section{Factory}{ |
| |
| The \code{ChunkedArray$create()} factory method instantiates the object from |
| various Arrays or R vectors. \code{chunked_array()} is an alias for it. |
| } |
| |
| \section{Methods}{ |
| |
| \itemize{ |
| \item \code{$length()} |
| \item \code{$chunk(i)} |
| \item \code{$as_vector()} |
| \item \code{$Slice(offset, length = NULL)} |
| \item \code{$cast(target_type, safe = TRUE, options = cast_options(safe))} |
| \item \code{$null_count()} |
| \item \code{$chunks()} |
| \item \code{$num_chunks()} |
| \item \code{$type()} |
| \item \code{$View(type)}: Construct a zero-copy view of this chunked array with the given type. |
| \item \code{$Validate()} : Perform any validation checks to determine obvious inconsistencies |
| within the array's internal data. This can be an expensive check, potentially \code{O(length)} |
