                passing the labels here is optional, as long as they're in the input `columns`.

        Apply a function to all the examples in the table (individually or in batches) and update the table.
        If your function returns a column that already exists, then it overwrites it.

        You can specify whether the function should be batched or not with the ``batched`` parameter:

        - If batched is False, then the function takes 1 example in and should return 1 example.
          An example is a dictionary, e.g. {"text": "Hello there !"}
        - If batched is True and batch_size is 1, then the function takes a batch of 1 example as input and can return a batch with 1 or more examples.
          A batch is a dictionary, e.g. a batch of 1 example is {"text": ["Hello there !"]}
        - If batched is True and batch_size is ``n`` > 1, then the function takes a batch of ``n`` examples as input and can return a batch with ``n`` examples, or with an arbitrary number of examples.
          Note that the last batch may have less than ``n`` examples.
          A batch is a dictionary, e.g. a batch of ``n`` examples is {"text": ["Hello there !"] * n}

        Args:
            function (:obj:`Callable`): Function with one of the following signatures:

                - `function(example: Dict[str, Any]) -> Dict[str, Any]` if `batched=False` and `with_indices=False` and `with_rank=False`
                - `function(example: Dict[str, Any], *extra_args) -> Dict[str, Any]` if `batched=False` and `with_indices=True` and/or `with_rank=True` (one extra arg for each)
                - `function(batch: Dict[str, List]) -> Dict[str, List]` if `batched=True` and `with_indices=False` and `with_rank=False`
                - `function(batch: Dict[str, List], *extra_args) -> Dict[str, List]` if `batched=True` and `with_indices=True` and/or `with_rank=True` (one extra arg for each)

                For advanced usage, the function can also return a `pyarrow.Table`.
                Moreover if your function returns nothing (`None`), then `map` will run your function and return the dataset unchanged.
                If no function is provided, default to identity function: ``lambda x: x``.
            with_indices (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Provide example indices to `function`. Note that in this case the
                signature of `function` should be `def function(example, idx[, rank]): ...`.
            with_rank (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Provide process rank to `function`. Note that in this case the
                signature of `function` should be `def function(example[, idx], rank): ...`.
            input_columns (`Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]`, default `None`): The columns to be passed into `function`
                as positional arguments. If `None`, a dict mapping to all formatted columns is passed as one argument.
            batched (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Provide batch of examples to `function`.
            batch_size (:obj:`int`, optional, default `1000`): Number of examples per batch provided to `function` if `batched=True`
                `batch_size <= 0` or `batch_size == None`: Provide the full dataset as a single batch to `function`.
            drop_last_batch (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Whether a last batch smaller than the batch_size should be
                dropped instead of being processed by the function.
            remove_columns (`Optional[Union[str, List[str]]]`, default `None`): Remove a selection of columns while doing the mapping.
                Columns will be removed before updating the examples with the output of `function`, i.e. if `function` is adding
                columns with names in `remove_columns`, these columns will be kept.
            keep_in_memory (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Keep the dataset in memory instead of writing it to a cache file.
            load_from_cache_file (:obj:`bool`, default `True` if caching is enabled): If a cache file storing the current computation from `function`
                can be identified, use it instead of recomputing.
            cache_file_name (:obj:`str`, optional, default `None`): Provide the name of a path for the cache file. It is used to store the
                results of the computation instead of the automatically generated cache file name.
            writer_batch_size (:obj:`int`, default `1000`): Number of rows per write operation for the cache file writer.
                This value is a good trade-off between memory usage during the processing, and processing speed.
                Higher value makes the processing do fewer lookups, lower value consume less temporary memory while running `.map()`.
            features (`Optional[datasets.Features]`, default `None`): Use a specific Features to store the cache file
                instead of the automatically generated one.
            disable_nullable (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Disallow null values in the table.
            fn_kwargs (:obj:`Dict`, optional, default `None`): Keyword arguments to be passed to `function`.
            num_proc (:obj:`int`, optional, default `None`): Max number of processes when generating cache. Already cached shards are loaded sequentially
            suffix_template (:obj:`str`):
                If cache_file_name is specified, then this suffix
                will be added at the end of the base name of each: defaults to "_{rank:05d}_of_{num_proc:05d}". For example, if cache_file_name is "processed.arrow", then for
                rank=1 and num_proc=4, the resulting file would be "processed_00001_of_00004.arrow" for the default suffix.
            new_fingerprint (:obj:`str`, optional, default `None`): the new fingerprint of the dataset after transform.
                If `None`, the new fingerprint is computed using a hash of the previous fingerprint, and the transform arguments.
            desc (:obj:`str`, optional, defaults to `None`): Meaningful description to be displayed alongside with the progress bar while mapping examples.

        Example:

        ```py
        >>> from datasets import load_dataset
        >>> ds = load_dataset("rotten_tomatoes", split="validation")
        >>> def add_prefix(example):

         'Review: the soundtrack alone is worth the price of admission .',
         'Review: rodriguez does a splendid job of racial profiling hollywood style--casting excellent latin actors of all ages--a trend long overdue .']

        and update the table (if function does update examples).

        Args:
            function (:obj:`Callable`): with one of the following signature:
                - `function(example: Dict[str, Any]) -> Dict[str, Any]` if `batched=False` and `with_indices=False` and `with_rank=False`
                - `function(example: Dict[str, Any], *extra_args) -> Dict[str, Any]` if `batched=False` and `with_indices=True` and/or `with_rank=True` (one extra arg for each)
                - `function(batch: Dict[str, List]) -> Dict[str, List]` if `batched=True` and `with_indices=False` and `with_rank=False`
                - `function(batch: Dict[str, List], *extra_args) -> Dict[str, List]` if `batched=True` and `with_indices=True` and/or `with_rank=True` (one extra arg for each)

                For advanced usage, the function can also return a `pyarrow.Table`.
                Moreover if your function returns nothing (`None`), then `map` will run your function and return the dataset unchanged.
                If no function is provided, default to identity function: lambda x: x
            with_indices (:obj:`bool`, defaults to `False`): Provide example indices to `function`. Note that in this case the signature of `function` should be `def function(example, idx[, rank]): ...`.
            with_rank (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Provide process rank to `function`. Note that in this case the signature of `function` should be `def function(example[, idx], rank): ...`.
            input_columns (`Optional[List[str]]`, defaults to `None`): The columns to be passed into `function` as
                positional arguments. If `None`, a dict mapping to all formatted columns is passed as one argument.
            batched (:obj:`bool`, defaults to `False`): Provide batch of examples to `function`
            batch_size (:obj:`int`, optional, defaults to `1000`): Number of examples per batch provided to `function` if `batched=True`
                `batch_size <= 0` or `batch_size == None`: Provide the full dataset as a single batch to `function`
            drop_last_batch (:obj:`bool`, default: `False`): Whether a last batch smaller than the batch_size should be
                dropped instead of being processed by the function.
            remove_columns (`Optional[List[str]]`, defaults to `None`): Remove a selection of columns while doing the mapping.
                Columns will be removed before updating the examples with the output of `function`, i.e. if `function` is adding
                columns with names in `remove_columns`, these columns will be kept.
            keep_in_memory (:obj:`bool`, defaults to `False`): Keep the dataset in memory instead of writing it to a cache file.
            load_from_cache_file (:obj:`bool`, defaults to `True` if caching is enabled): If a cache file storing the current computation from `function`
                can be identified, use it instead of recomputing.
            cache_file_name (:obj:`str`, optional, defaults to `None`): Provide the name of a path for the cache file. It is used to store the
                results of the computation instead of the automatically generated cache file name.
            writer_batch_size (:obj:`int`, default `1000`): Number of rows per write operation for the cache file writer.
                This value is a good trade-off between memory usage during the processing, and processing speed.
                Higher value makes the processing do fewer lookups, lower value consume less temporary memory while running `.map()`.
            features (`Optional[datasets.Features]`, defaults to `None`): Use a specific Features to store the cache file
                instead of the automatically generated one.
            disable_nullable (:obj:`bool`, defaults to `False`): Disallow null values in the table.
            fn_kwargs (:obj:`Dict`, optional, defaults to `None`): Keyword arguments to be passed to `function`
            new_fingerprint (:obj:`str`, optional, defaults to `None`): the new fingerprint of the dataset after transform.
                If `None`, the new fingerprint is computed using a hash of the previous fingerprint, and the transform arguments
            rank: (:obj:`int`, optional, defaults to `None`): If specified, this is the process rank when doing multiprocessing
            offset: (:obj:`int`, defaults to 0): If specified, this is an offset applied to the indices passed to `function` if `with_indices=True`.
            disable_tqdm (:obj:`bool`, defaults to `False`): Whether to silence tqdm's output.
            desc (:obj:`str`, optional, defaults to `None`): Meaningful description to be displayed alongside with the progress bar while mapping examples.
            cache_only (`bool`, defaults to `False`): Flag in order to notifiy the method will either find a cached dataset or raise `NonExistentDatasetError` exception,

        and update the table so that the dataset only includes examples according to the filter function.

        Args:
            function (:obj:`Callable`): Callable with one of the following signatures:

                - ``function(example: Dict[str, Any]) -> bool`` if ``with_indices=False, batched=False``
                - ``function(example: Dict[str, Any], indices: int) -> bool`` if ``with_indices=True, batched=False``

                If no function is provided, defaults to an always True function: ``lambda x: True``.
            with_indices (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Provide example indices to `function`. Note that in this case the signature of `function` should be `def function(example, idx): ...`.
            input_columns (:obj:`str` or `List[str]`, optional): The columns to be passed into `function` as
                positional arguments. If `None`, a dict mapping to all formatted columns is passed as one argument.
            batched (:obj:`bool`, defaults to `False`): Provide batch of examples to `function`
            batch_size (:obj:`int`, optional, default `1000`): Number of examples per batch provided to `function` if
                ``batched = True``. If ``batched = False``, one example per batch is passed to ``function``.
                If ``batch_size <= 0`` or ``batch_size == None``: provide the full dataset as a single batch to `function`
            keep_in_memory (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Keep the dataset in memory instead of writing it to a cache file.
            load_from_cache_file (:obj:`bool`, default `True`): If a cache file storing the current computation from `function`
                can be identified, use it instead of recomputing.
            cache_file_name (:obj:`str`, optional): Provide the name of a path for the cache file. It is used to store the
                results of the computation instead of the automatically generated cache file name.
            writer_batch_size (:obj:`int`, default `1000`): Number of rows per write operation for the cache file writer.
                This value is a good trade-off between memory usage during the processing, and processing speed.
                Higher value makes the processing do fewer lookups, lower value consume less temporary memory while running `.map()`.
            fn_kwargs (:obj:`dict`, optional): Keyword arguments to be passed to `function`
            num_proc (:obj:`int`, optional): Number of processes for multiprocessing. By default it doesn't
                use multiprocessing.
            suffix_template (:obj:`str`):
                If `cache_file_name` is specified, then this suffix will be added at the end of the base name of each.
                For example, if `cache_file_name` is `"processed.arrow"`, then for ``rank = 1`` and ``num_proc = 4``,
                the resulting file would be `"processed_00001_of_00004.arrow"` for the default suffix (default
                `_{rank:05d}_of_{num_proc:05d}`)
            new_fingerprint (:obj:`str`, optional): The new fingerprint of the dataset after transform.
                If `None`, the new fingerprint is computed using a hash of the previous fingerprint, and the transform arguments.
            desc (:obj:`str`, optional, defaults to `None`): Meaningful description to be displayed alongside with the progress bar while filtering examples.

        Splits are created from the dataset according to `test_size`, `train_size` and `shuffle`.

        This method is similar to scikit-learn `train_test_split`.

        Args:
            test_size (:obj:`numpy.random.Generator`, optional): Size of the test split
                If float, should be between 0.0 and 1.0 and represent the proportion of the dataset to include in the test split.
                If int, represents the absolute number of test samples.
                If None, the value is set to the complement of the train size.
                If train_size is also None, it will be set to 0.25.
            train_size (:obj:`numpy.random.Generator`, optional): Size of the train split
                If float, should be between 0.0 and 1.0 and represent the proportion of the dataset to include in the train split.
                If int, represents the absolute number of train samples.
                If None, the value is automatically set to the complement of the test size.
            shuffle (:obj:`bool`, optional, default `True`): Whether or not to shuffle the data before splitting.
            stratify_by_column (:obj:`str`, optional, default `None`): The column name of labels to be used to perform stratified split of data.
            seed (:obj:`int`, optional): A seed to initialize the default BitGenerator if ``generator=None``.
                If None, then fresh, unpredictable entropy will be pulled from the OS.
                If an int or array_like[ints] is passed, then it will be passed to SeedSequence to derive the initial BitGenerator state.
            generator (:obj:`numpy.random.Generator`, optional): Numpy random Generator to use to compute the permutation of the dataset rows.
                If ``generator=None`` (default), uses np.random.default_rng (the default BitGenerator (PCG64) of NumPy).
            keep_in_memory (:obj:`bool`, default `False`): Keep the splits indices in memory instead of writing it to a cache file.
            load_from_cache_file (:obj:`bool`, default `True`): If a cache file storing the splits indices
                can be identified, use it instead of recomputing.
            train_cache_file_name (:obj:`str`, optional): Provide the name of a path for the cache file. It is used to store the
                train split indices instead of the automatically generated cache file name.
            test_cache_file_name (:obj:`str`, optional): Provide the name of a path for the cache file. It is used to store the
                test split indices instead of the automatically generated cache file name.
            writer_batch_size (:obj:`int`, default `1000`): Number of rows per write operation for the cache file writer.
                This value is a good trade-off between memory usage during the processing, and processing speed.
                Higher value makes the processing do fewer lookups, lower value consume less temporary memory while running `.map()`.
            train_new_fingerprint (:obj:`str`, optional, defaults to `None`): the new fingerprint of the train set after transform.
                If `None`, the new fingerprint is computed using a hash of the previous fingerprint, and the transform arguments
            test_new_fingerprint (:obj:`str`, optional, defaults to `None`): the new fingerprint of the test set after transform.
                If `None`, the new fingerprint is computed using a hash of the previous fingerprint, and the transform arguments

            If the strategy is `all_exhausted`,  we use an oversampling strategy, i.e the dataset construction is stopped as soon as every samples of every dataset has been added at least once.
            Note that if the strategy is `all_exhausted`, the interleaved dataset size can get enormous:
            - with no probabilities, the resulting dataset will have max_length_datasets*nb_dataset samples.
            - with given probabilities, the resulting dataset will have more samples if some datasets have really low probability of visiting.
        **kwargs (additional keyword arguments): Keyword arguments to be passed to :meth:`datasets.Datasets.select` when selecting the indices used to interleave the datasets.

    Output:
        :class:`datasets.Dataset`
