This code is written in Python and uses the polars library for working with DataFrames. Here's what this code specifically does:

1. Iterates over all columns in the DataFrame (df):

   • for column in df.columns creates a loop to process each column in the DataFrame.

2. Checks conditions for each column:

   • pl.when(pl.col(column).is_not_null() & (pl.col(column) == datetonull)) defines a condition for each column:
     • pl.col(column).is_not_null() checks whether the column's value is not null.
     • (pl.col(column) == datetonull) checks whether the column's value is equal to datetonull, which is presumably a variable or a specific value.

3. Applies transformation based on the condition:

   • If the condition is True (i.e., the column value is not null and equals datetonull), the value is replaced with np.nan (a numpy representation of "Not a Number").
   • If the condition is False (i.e., the value doesn't meet the above criteria), the value remains unchanged (pl.col(column)).

4. Creates a new column with the transformed values:

   • alias(column) ensures that the modified column retains its original name.

5. Modifies the DataFrame:

   • df.with_columns([...]) updates the DataFrame with the altered values for all columns.

Overall:

This code replaces all occurrences of a specific value (datetonull) with np.nan in any non-null column of the DataFrame, for every column in df. If a value in a column does not match datetonull or is null, it is left unchanged.
