        Apply a function to all the examples in the iterable dataset (individually or in batches) and update them.
        If your function returns a column that already exists, then it overwrites it.
        The function is applied on-the-fly on the examples when iterating over the dataset.

        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 (`Callable`, *optional*, defaults to `None`):
                Function applied on-the-fly on the examples when you iterate on the dataset.
                It must have one of the following signatures:

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

                - `function(batch: Dict[str, List], indices: List[int]) -> Dict[str, List]` if `batched=True` and `with_indices=True`

                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 (`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]): ...`.
            input_columns (`Optional[Union[str, 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 (`bool`, defaults to `False`):
                Provide batch of examples to `function`.
            batch_size (`int`, *optional*, defaults to `1000`):
                Number of examples per batch provided to `function` if `batched=True`.
                `batch_size <= 0` or `batch_size == None` then provide the full dataset as a single batch to `function`.
            drop_last_batch (`bool`, defaults to `False`):
                Whether a last batch smaller than the batch_size should be
                dropped instead of being processed by the function.
            remove_columns (`[List[str]]`, *optional*, 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.
            features (`[Features]`, *optional*, defaults to `None`):
                Feature types of the resulting dataset.
            fn_kwargs (`Dict`, *optional*, default `None`):
                Keyword arguments to be passed to `function`.

        Randomly shuffles the elements of this dataset.

        This dataset fills a buffer with `buffer_size` elements, then randomly samples elements from this buffer,
        replacing the selected elements with new elements. For perfect shuffling, a buffer size greater than or
        equal to the full size of the dataset is required.

        For instance, if your dataset contains 10,000 elements but `buffer_size` is set to 1000, then `shuffle` will
        initially select a random element from only the first 1000 elements in the buffer. Once an element is
        selected, its space in the buffer is replaced by the next (i.e. 1,001-st) element,
        maintaining the 1000 element buffer.

        If the dataset is made of several shards, it also does shuffle the order of the shards.
        However if the order has been fixed by using [`~datasets.IterableDataset.skip`] or [`~datasets.IterableDataset.take`]
        then the order of the shards is kept unchanged.

        Args:
            seed (`int`, *optional*, defaults to `None`):
                Random seed that will be used to shuffle the dataset.
                It is used to sample from the shuffle buffer and also to shuffle the data shards.
            generator (`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).
            buffer_size (`int`, defaults to `1000`):
                Size of the buffer.

                New features to cast the dataset to.
                The name of the fields in the features must match the current column names.
                The type of the data must also be convertible from one type to the other.
                For non-trivial conversion, e.g. `string` <-> `ClassLabel` you should use [`~Dataset.map`] to update the Dataset.

        Returns:
            `IterableDataset`: A copy of the dataset with casted features.

        Example:

        ```py
        >>> from datasets import load_dataset
        >>> ds = load_dataset("rotten_tomatoes", split="train", streaming=True)
