   array

An array's Python class depends on its data type. Concrete array classes may expose data type-specific methods or properties.

   Array
   BooleanArray
   FloatingPointArray
   IntegerArray
   Int8Array
   Int16Array
   Int32Array
   Int64Array
   NullArray
   NumericArray
   UInt8Array
   UInt16Array
   UInt32Array
   UInt64Array
   BinaryArray
   StringArray
   FixedSizeBinaryArray
   LargeBinaryArray
   LargeStringArray
   Time32Array
   Time64Array
   Date32Array
   Date64Array
   TimestampArray
   Decimal128Array
   DictionaryArray
   ListArray
   LargeListArray
   StructArray
   UnionArray

Indexing an array wraps the represented value in a scalar object whose concrete type depends on the array data type. You shouldn't instantiate any of those classes directly.
