Weston Pace reopened ARROW-12813:
---------------------------------
I was going to close as duplicate but looking at ARROW-12789 more closely I
think they are asking for similar but slightly different interfaces.
> [C++] Support for a `full` compute function
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-12813
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12813
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Weston Pace
> Priority: Major
>
> Given a scalar value and a length return an array where all values are equal
> to the scalar value.
> The name "full" is derived from
> [https://numpy.org/doc/stable/reference/generated/numpy.full.html] but if
> anyone has a more clever name please recommend it.
> There are a number of utility functions in C++ that do this already.
> However, exposing this as a compute function would allow R/Python to easily
> generate arrays.
