pandas.api.types.is_file_like#
- pandas.api.types.is_file_like(obj)[source]#
Check if the object is a file-like object.
For objects to be considered file-like, they must be an iterator AND have either a read and/or write method as an attribute.
Note: file-like objects must be iterable, but iterable objects need not be file-like.
- Parameters
- objThe object to check
- Returns
- bool
Whether obj has file-like properties.
Examples
>>> import io >>> from pandas.api.types import is_file_like >>> buffer = io.StringIO("data") >>> is_file_like(buffer) True >>> is_file_like([1, 2, 3]) False
