          datafu.pig.util.In

public class In
extends org.apache.pig.FilterFunc

Similar to the SQL IN function, this function provides a convenient way to filter using a logical disjunction over many values. Returns true when the first value of the tuple is contained within the remainder of the tuple.

Example:

 define In datafu.pig.util.In();
 -- cars: (alice, red), (bob, blue), (charlie, green), (dave, red);
 cars = LOAD cars AS (owner:chararray, color:chararray);
 
 -- cars: (alice, red), (bob, blue), (dave, red);
 red_blue_cars = FILTER cars BY In(color, 'red', 'blue');
