class ExtensionArray(object):
    """
    Abstract base class for custom 1-D array types.

    pandas will recognize instances of this class as proper arrays
    with a custom type and will not attempt to coerce them to objects. They
    may be stored directly inside a :class:`DataFrame` or :class:`Series`.

    .. versionadded:: 0.23.0

    Notes
    -----
    The interface includes the following abstract methods that must be
    implemented by subclasses:

    * _from_sequence
    * _from_factorized
    * __getitem__
    * __len__
    * dtype
    * nbytes
    * isna
    * take
    * copy
    * _concat_same_type

    A default repr displaying the type, (truncated) data, length,
    and dtype is provided. It can be customized or replaced by
    by overriding:

    * __repr__ : A default repr for the ExtensionArray.
    * _formatter : Print scalars inside a Series or DataFrame.

    Some methods require casting the ExtensionArray to an ndarray of Python
    objects with ``self.astype(object)``, which may be expensive. When
    performance is a concern, we highly recommend overriding the following
    methods:

    * fillna
    * dropna
    * unique
    * factorize / _values_for_factorize
    * argsort / _values_for_argsort
    * searchsorted

    The remaining methods implemented on this class should be performant,
    as they only compose abstract methods. Still, a more efficient
    implementation may be available, and these methods can be overridden.

    One can implement methods to handle array reductions.

    * _reduce

    One can implement methods to handle parsing from strings that will be used
    in methods such as ``pandas.io.parsers.read_csv``.

    * _from_sequence_of_strings

    This class does not inherit from 'abc.ABCMeta' for performance reasons.
    Methods and properties required by the interface raise
    ``pandas.errors.AbstractMethodError`` and no ``register`` method is
    provided for registering virtual subclasses.

    ExtensionArrays are limited to 1 dimension.

    They may be backed by none, one, or many NumPy arrays. For example,
    ``pandas.Categorical`` is an extension array backed by two arrays,
    one for codes and one for categories. An array of IPv6 address may
    be backed by a NumPy structured array with two fields, one for the
    lower 64 bits and one for the upper 64 bits. Or they may be backed
    by some other storage type, like Python lists. Pandas makes no
    assumptions on how the data are stored, just that it can be converted
    to a NumPy array.
    The ExtensionArray interface does not impose any rules on how this data
    is stored. However, currently, the backing data cannot be stored in
    attributes called ``.values`` or ``._values`` to ensure full compatibility
    with pandas internals. But other names as ``.data``, ``._data``,
    ``._items``, ... can be freely used.

        values : ndarray

            An array suitable for factorization. This should maintain order
            and be a supported dtype (Float64, Int64, UInt64, String, Object).

            The value in `values` to consider missing. This will be treated

            `na_sentinal` and not included in `uniques`. By default,
            ``np.nan`` is used.

        """
        Take elements from an array.

        Parameters
        ----------
        indices : sequence of integers
            Indices to be taken.
        allow_fill : bool, default False
            How to handle negative values in `indices`.

            * False: negative values in `indices` indicate positional indices
              from the right (the default). This is similar to
              :func:`numpy.take`.

            * True: negative values in `indices` indicate
              missing values. These values are set to `fill_value`. Any other
              other negative values raise a ``ValueError``.

        fill_value : any, optional
            Fill value to use for NA-indices when `allow_fill` is True.
            This may be ``None``, in which case the default NA value for
            the type, ``self.dtype.na_value``, is used.

            For many ExtensionArrays, there will be two representations of
            `fill_value`: a user-facing "boxed" scalar, and a low-level
            physical NA value. `fill_value` should be the user-facing version,
            and the implementation should handle translating that to the
            physical version for processing the take if necessary.

        Returns
        -------
        ExtensionArray

        Raises
        ------
        IndexError
            When the indices are out of bounds for the array.
        ValueError
            When `indices` contains negative values other than ``-1``
            and `allow_fill` is True.

        Notes
        -----
        ExtensionArray.take is called by ``Series.__getitem__``, ``.loc``,
        ``iloc``, when `indices` is a sequence of values. Additionally,
        it's called by :meth:`Series.reindex`, or any other method
        that causes realignment, with a `fill_value`.
