Interval.overlaps(other)#

Two intervals overlap if they share a common point, including closedendpoints. Intervals that only have an open endpoint in common do notoverlap.

Parameters:

otherInterval

Interval to check against for an overlap.

Returns:

bool

True if the two intervals overlap.

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
