Quickstart
What is an Awkward Array?
Converting arrays
NumPy
Python objects
JSON
ROOT via Uproot
Arrow and Parquet
Pandas
Generic buffers
Creating new arrays
ArrayBuilder (easy & general)
Layout (faster)
Unflattening and grouping
Arrays of records

Examining arrays
Data type
Single item detail
Listing fields/keys/columns
Simple slicing
Checking validity
Numerical math

Using argmin/argmax
On GPUs
Filtering data
By number of items
Cuts vs. masks
