'Model_ROOT_3a3a_Experimental_3a3a_RNTuple' object is not subscriptable error while accessing event keys

[giedrius2020]

Uproot version: 5.3.10

We compared data loading for TTree and RNTuple structures.

We tried to use method:

# Loading the file:
with uproot.open(file) as f: # Remote TTree
    events = f["Events"]
# Getting array:
array = events["Electron_pt"].array()

Accessing "Electron_pt" key worked with TTree, but did not work with RNTuple. In RNTuple case we got this error:
'Model_ROOT_3a3a_Experimental_3a3a_RNTuple' object is not subscriptable

For now as a workaround we used this approach:
events.arrays()["Electron_pt"],
(NOTE: this approach is really slow when used with TTree).

If possible, we would like to :

• use the same array = events["Electron_pt"].array() syntax for RNTuple as with TTree and get the same results.

Does events.arrays(["Electron_pt"])["Electron_pt"] work? I imagine events.arrays()["Electron_pt"] is slow because it will read the full file.

I checked it. Yes it works and is way faster. Thanks, I will use this approach for loading from now.
