pandas.Interval.overlaps

Interval.overlaps()

Check whether two Interval objects overlap.

Two intervals overlap if they share a common point, including closed endpoints. Intervals that only have an open endpoint in common do not overlap.

New in version 0.24.0.

Parameters

otherInterval

Interval to check against for an overlap.

Returns

bool

True if the two intervals overlap.

The corresponding method for IntervalArray.

IntervalIndex.overlaps

The corresponding method for IntervalIndex.

Examples

>>> i1 = pd.Interval(0, 2)
>>> i2 = pd.Interval(1, 3)
>>> i1.overlaps(i2)
True
>>> i3 = pd.Interval(4, 5)
>>> i1.overlaps(i3)
False

Intervals that share closed endpoints overlap:

>>> i4 = pd.Interval(0, 1, closed='both')
>>> i5 = pd.Interval(1, 2, closed='both')
>>> i4.overlaps(i5)
True

Intervals that only have an open endpoint in common do not overlap:

>>> i6 = pd.Interval(1, 2, closed='neither')
>>> i4.overlaps(i6)
False
