        the possibility of running entirely lazily.

        Note:
            If `backend` is spark-like, then a valid `session` is required.

                - `df[0:2]` extracts the first two rows and returns a `DataFrame`.
                - `df[0:2, 'a']` extracts the first two rows from column `'a'` and returns
                    a `Series`.
                - `df[0:2, 0]` extracts the first two rows from the first column and returns
                    a `Series`.
                - `df[[0, 1], [0, 1, 2]]` extracts the first two rows and the first three columns
                    and returns a `DataFrame`
                - `df[:, [0, 1, 2]]` extracts all rows from the first three columns and returns a
                  `DataFrame`.
                - `df[:, ['a', 'c']]` extracts all rows and columns `'a'` and `'c'` and returns a
                  `DataFrame`.
                - `df[:, [True, False, True]]` extracts all rows and columns in positions 0 and 2
                  and returns a `DataFrame`.
                - `df[['a', 'c']]` extracts all rows and columns `'a'` and `'c'` and returns a
                  `DataFrame`.
                - `df[0: 2, ['a', 'c']]` extracts the first two rows and columns `'a'` and `'c'` and
                    returns a `DataFrame`
                - `df[:, 0: 2]` extracts all rows from the first two columns and returns a `DataFrame`
                - `df[:, 'a': 'c']` extracts all rows and all columns positioned between `'a'` and `'c'`
                    _inclusive_ and returns a `DataFrame`. For example, if the columns are
                    `'a', 'd', 'c', 'b'`, then that would extract columns `'a'`, `'d'`, and `'c'`.

        Notes:
            - Integers are always interpreted as positions
            - Strings are always interpreted as column names.

            In contrast with Polars, pandas allows non-string column names.
            If you don't know whether the column name you're trying to extract
            is definitely a string (e.g. `df[df.columns[0]]`) then you should
            use `DataFrame.get_column` instead.

        This function is useful to massage a DataFrame into a format where one or more

        measured variables (on), are "unpivoted" to the row axis leaving just
        two non-identifier columns, 'variable' and 'value'.

        Arguments:
            on: Column(s) to use as values variables; if `on` is empty all columns that
                are not in `index` will be used.
            index: Column(s) to use as identifier variables.
            variable_name: Name to give to the `variable` column. Defaults to "variable".
            value_name: Name to give to the `value` column. Defaults to "value".

        Notes:
            If you're coming from pandas, this is similar to `pandas.DataFrame.melt`,
            but with `index` replacing `id_vars` and `on` replacing `value_vars`.
            In other frameworks, you might know this operation as `pivot_longer`.

        columns are identifier variables (index) while all other columns, considered
        measured variables (on), are "unpivoted" to the row axis leaving just
        two non-identifier columns, 'variable' and 'value'.

            value_name: Name to give to the `value` column. Defaults to "value".

            If you're coming from pandas, this is similar to `pandas.DataFrame.melt`,
