combine_continuous_intervals

combine_continuous_intervals(intervals, threshold=0)

Combines continuous (or overlapping) intervals.

Parameters:

• intervals (IntervalIndex) – A list of (possibly) non-continuous intervals.

• threshold (interval delta, default 0) – The threshold used to determine continuity. The threshold type should reflect the type of the intervals, e.g. int for int intervals and timedelta for datetime intervals.

Returns:

Containing non-overlapping intervals with a gap larger than threshold. The length of the returned index is smaller or equal to the input index.

Return type:

IntervalIndex
