This code snippet processes the columns of a `Polars` DataFrame...

This code snippet processes the columns of a Polars DataFrame (df2) and updates the values of its columns based on a specific condition. Let's break it down:

1. Iterate through columns:

   for column in df2.iter_columns()
   

   This loop iterates over all the column names in the df2 DataFrame (using iter_columns() or an equivalent method to get the columns).

2. Apply transformation on each column:

   df2 = df2.with_columns(
       pl.when(df2.col(column).is_not_null() & (pl.col(column) == datetonull))
       .then(pl.lit(None))
       .otherwise(pl.col(column))
       .alias(column)
   )
   

   • This transformation is applied for each column:

     • It checks the condition:

       df2.col(column).is_not_null() & (pl.col(column) == datetonull)
       

       The condition ensures:

       • The column value is not null (is_not_null()).
       • The column value is equal to a specific value datetonull.

     • If the condition is True:

       .then(pl.lit(None))
       

       Replace the column value with None.

     • Otherwise (False):

       .otherwise(pl.col(column))
       

       Keep the original value of the column.

     • The alias(column) ensures the transformation happens in the same column.

3. Update the DataFrame: The .with_columns() method replaces the specified column(s) in df2 with the newly computed column that adheres to the changes described above.

In summary:

This code loops over all columns in the Polars DataFrame df2 and replaces any values in each column that are equal to datetonull and are not null, with None. Other values remain unchanged. The transformed DataFrame overwrites the original df2.
