"""
Algorithms that Involve Multiple DataFrames
===========================================

The pandas operations ``concat``, ``join``, and ``merge`` combine multiple
DataFrames.  This module contains analogous algorithms in the parallel case.

There are two important cases:

1.  We combine along a partitioned index
2.  We combine along an unpartitioned index or other column

In the first case we know which partitions of each dataframe interact with
which others.  This lets us be significantly more clever and efficient.

In the second case each partition from one dataset interacts with all
partitions from the other.  We handle this through a shuffle operation.

Partitioned Joins
-----------------

In the first case where we join along a partitioned index we proceed in the
following stages.

1.  Align the partitions of all inputs to be the same.  This involves a call
    to ``dd.repartition`` which will split up and concat existing partitions as
    necessary.  After this step all inputs have partitions that align with
    each other.  This step is relatively cheap.
    See the function ``align_partitions``.
2.  Remove unnecessary partitions based on the type of join we perform (left,
    right, inner, outer).  We can do this at the partition level before any
    computation happens.  We'll do it again on each partition when we call the
    in-memory function.  See the function ``require``.
3.  Embarrassingly parallel calls to ``pd.concat``, ``pd.join``, or
    ``pd.merge``.  Now that the data is aligned and unnecessary blocks have
    been removed we can rely on the fast in-memory Pandas join machinery to
    execute joins per-partition.  We know that all intersecting records exist
    within the same partition


Hash Joins via Shuffle
----------------------

When we join along an unpartitioned index or along an arbitrary column any
partition from one input might interact with any partition in another.  In
this case we perform a hash-join by shuffling data in each input by that
column.  This results in new inputs with the same partition structure cleanly
separated along that column.

We proceed with hash joins in the following stages:

1.  Shuffle each input on the specified column.  See the function
    ``dask.dataframe.shuffle.shuffle``.
2.  Perform embarrassingly parallel join across shuffled inputs.

    -----
    This differs in from ``pd.concat`` in the when concatenating Categoricals
    with different categories. Pandas currently coerces those to objects
    before concatenating. Coercing to objects is very expensive for large
    arrays, so dask preserves the Categoricals by taking the union of
    the categories.

    Examples
    --------
    If all divisions are known and ordered, divisions are kept.

    >>> import dask.dataframe as dd
    >>> a                                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<x, divisions=(1, 3, 5)>
    >>> b                                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<y, divisions=(6, 8, 10)>
    >>> dd.concat([a, b])                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<concat-..., divisions=(1, 3, 6, 8, 10)>

    Unable to concatenate if divisions are not ordered.

    >>> a                                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<x, divisions=(1, 3, 5)>
    >>> b                                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<y, divisions=(2, 3, 6)>
    >>> dd.concat([a, b])                               # doctest: +SKIP
    ValueError: All inputs have known divisions which cannot be concatenated
    in order. Specify interleave_partitions=True to ignore order

    Specify interleave_partitions=True to ignore the division order.

    >>> dd.concat([a, b], interleave_partitions=True)   # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<concat-..., divisions=(1, 2, 3, 5, 6)>

    If any of division is unknown, the result division will be unknown

    >>> a                                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<x, divisions=(None, None)>
    >>> b                                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<y, divisions=(1, 4, 10)>
    >>> dd.concat([a, b])                               # doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<concat-..., divisions=(None, None, None, None)>

    By default concatenating with unknown divisions will raise a warning.
    Set ``ignore_unknown_divisions=True`` to disable this:

    >>> dd.concat([a, b], ignore_unknown_divisions=True)# doctest: +SKIP
    dd.DataFrame<concat-..., divisions=(None, None, None, None)>

    Different categoricals are unioned

    >>> dd.concat([
    ...     dd.from_pandas(pd.Series(['a', 'b'], dtype='category'), 1),
    ...     dd.from_pandas(pd.Series(['a', 'c'], dtype='category'), 1),
    ... ], interleave_partitions=True).dtype
