ak.validity_error

Defined in awkward.operations.ak_validity_error on line 12.

ak.validity_error(array, *, exception=False)

Parameters:

• array – Array-like data (anything ak.to_layout recognizes).

• exception (bool) – If True, validity errors raise exceptions.

Returns an empty string if there are no errors and a str containing the error message if there are.

Checks for errors in the structure of the array, such as indexes that run beyond the length of a node’s content, etc. Either an error is raised or a string describing the error is returned.
