            add_special_tokens (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `True`):
                Whether or not to encode the sequences with the special tokens relative to their model.
            padding (`bool`, `str` or [`~utils.PaddingStrategy`], *optional*, defaults to `False`):
                Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:

                - `True` or `'longest'`: Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single
                  sequence if provided).
                - `'max_length'`: Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument `max_length` or to the maximum
                  acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.
                - `False` or `'do_not_pad'` (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different
                  lengths).
            truncation (`bool`, `str` or [`TapasTruncationStrategy`], *optional*, defaults to `False`):
                Activates and controls truncation. Accepts the following values:

                - `True` or `'drop_rows_to_fit'`: Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument `max_length`
                  or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will
                  truncate row by row, removing rows from the table.
                - `False` or `'do_not_truncate'` (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths
                  greater than the model maximum admissible input size).
            max_length (`int`, *optional*):
                Controls the maximum length to use by one of the truncation/padding parameters.

                If left unset or set to `None`, this will use the predefined model maximum length if a maximum length
                is required by one of the truncation/padding parameters. If the model has no specific maximum input
                length (like XLNet) truncation/padding to a maximum length will be deactivated.
            is_split_into_words (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`):
                Whether or not the input is already pre-tokenized (e.g., split into words). If set to `True`, the
                tokenizer assumes the input is already split into words (for instance, by splitting it on whitespace)
                which it will tokenize. This is useful for NER or token classification.
            pad_to_multiple_of (`int`, *optional*):
                If set will pad the sequence to a multiple of the provided value. This is especially useful to enable
                the use of Tensor Cores on NVIDIA hardware with compute capability `>= 7.5` (Volta).
            return_tensors (`str` or [`~utils.TensorType`], *optional*):
                If set, will return tensors instead of list of python integers. Acceptable values are:

                - `'tf'`: Return TensorFlow `tf.constant` objects.
                - `'pt'`: Return PyTorch `torch.Tensor` objects.
                - `'np'`: Return Numpy `np.ndarray` objects.

class TapasTokenizer(PreTrainedTokenizer):
    r"""
    Construct a TAPAS tokenizer. Based on WordPiece. Flattens a table and one or more related sentences to be used by
    TAPAS models.

    This tokenizer inherits from [`PreTrainedTokenizer`] which contains most of the main methods. Users should refer to
    this superclass for more information regarding those methods. [`TapasTokenizer`] creates several token type ids to
    encode tabular structure. To be more precise, it adds 7 token type ids, in the following order: `segment_ids`,
    `column_ids`, `row_ids`, `prev_labels`, `column_ranks`, `inv_column_ranks` and `numeric_relations`:

    - segment_ids: indicate whether a token belongs to the question (0) or the table (1). 0 for special tokens and
      padding.
    - column_ids: indicate to which column of the table a token belongs (starting from 1). Is 0 for all question
      tokens, special tokens and padding.
    - row_ids: indicate to which row of the table a token belongs (starting from 1). Is 0 for all question tokens,
      special tokens and padding. Tokens of column headers are also 0.
    - prev_labels: indicate whether a token was (part of) an answer to the previous question (1) or not (0). Useful in
      a conversational setup (such as SQA).
    - column_ranks: indicate the rank of a table token relative to a column, if applicable. For example, if you have a
      column "number of movies" with values 87, 53 and 69, then the column ranks of these tokens are 3, 1 and 2
      respectively. 0 for all question tokens, special tokens and padding.
    - inv_column_ranks: indicate the inverse rank of a table token relative to a column, if applicable. For example, if
      you have a column "number of movies" with values 87, 53 and 69, then the inverse column ranks of these tokens are
      1, 3 and 2 respectively. 0 for all question tokens, special tokens and padding.
    - numeric_relations: indicate numeric relations between the question and the tokens of the table. 0 for all
      question tokens, special tokens and padding.

    [`TapasTokenizer`] runs end-to-end tokenization on a table and associated sentences: punctuation splitting and
    wordpiece.

    Args:
        vocab_file (`str`):
            File containing the vocabulary.
        do_lower_case (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `True`):
            Whether or not to lowercase the input when tokenizing.
        do_basic_tokenize (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `True`):
            Whether or not to do basic tokenization before WordPiece.
        never_split (`Iterable`, *optional*):
            Collection of tokens which will never be split during tokenization. Only has an effect when
            `do_basic_tokenize=True`
        unk_token (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"[UNK]"`):
            The unknown token. A token that is not in the vocabulary cannot be converted to an ID and is set to be this
            token instead.
        sep_token (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"[SEP]"`):
            The separator token, which is used when building a sequence from multiple sequences, e.g. two sequences for
            sequence classification or for a text and a question for question answering. It is also used as the last
            token of a sequence built with special tokens.
        pad_token (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"[PAD]"`):
            The token used for padding, for example when batching sequences of different lengths.
        cls_token (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"[CLS]"`):
            The classifier token which is used when doing sequence classification (classification of the whole sequence
            instead of per-token classification). It is the first token of the sequence when built with special tokens.
        mask_token (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"[MASK]"`):
            The token used for masking values. This is the token used when training this model with masked language
            modeling. This is the token which the model will try to predict.
        empty_token (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"[EMPTY]"`):
            The token used for empty cell values in a table. Empty cell values include "", "n/a", "nan" and "?".
        tokenize_chinese_chars (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `True`):
            Whether or not to tokenize Chinese characters. This should likely be deactivated for Japanese (see this
            [issue](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/328)).
        strip_accents (`bool`, *optional*):
            Whether or not to strip all accents. If this option is not specified, then it will be determined by the
            value for `lowercase` (as in the original BERT).
        cell_trim_length (`int`, *optional*, defaults to -1):
            If > 0: Trim cells so that the length is <= this value. Also disables further cell trimming, should thus be
            used with `truncation` set to `True`.
        max_column_id (`int`, *optional*):
            Max column id to extract.
        max_row_id (`int`, *optional*):
            Max row id to extract.
        strip_column_names (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`):
            Whether to add empty strings instead of column names.
        update_answer_coordinates (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`):
            Whether to recompute the answer coordinates from the answer text.
        min_question_length (`int`, *optional*):
            Minimum length of each question in terms of tokens (will be skipped otherwise).
        max_question_length (`int`, *optional*):
            Maximum length of each question in terms of tokens (will be skipped otherwise).
