H2O Module¶
h2o¶
- h2o.h2o.as_list(data, use_pandas=True)[source]¶
Convert an H2O data object into a python-specific object.
WARNING! This will pull all data local!
If Pandas is available (and use_pandas is True), then pandas will be used to parse the data frame. Otherwise, a list-of-lists populated by character data will be returned (so the types of data will all be str).
Parameters: data : H2OFrame
An H2O data object.
- use_pandas : bool
Try to use pandas for reading in the data.
Returns: List of list (Rows x Columns).
- h2o.h2o.cluster_status()[source]¶
This is possibly confusing because this can come back without warning, but if a user tries to do any remoteSend, they will get a “cloud sick warning” Retrieve information on the status of the cluster running H2O.
- h2o.h2o.create_frame(id=None, rows=10000, cols=10, randomize=True, value=0, real_range=100, categorical_fraction=0.2, factors=100, integer_fraction=0.2, integer_range=100, binary_fraction=0.1, binary_ones_fraction=0.02, time_fraction=0, string_fraction=0, missing_fraction=0.01, response_factors=2, has_response=False, seed=None, seed_for_column_types=None)[source]¶

The number of rows of data to generate.
- cols : int
The number of columns of data to generate. Excludes the response column if has_response == True.
- randomize : bool
A logical value indicating whether data values should be randomly generated. This must be TRUE if either categorical_fraction or integer_fraction is non-zero.
