Polars counting elements in list column

I've have dataframe with column b with list elements, I need to create column c that counts number elements in list for every row. Here is toy example in Pandas:

import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({'a': [1,2,3], 'b':[[1,2,3], [2], [5,0]]})

    a   b
0   1   [1, 2, 3]
1   2   [2]
2   3   [5, 0]

df.assign(c=df['b'].str.len())

    a   b           c
0   1   [1, 2, 3]   3
1   2   [2]         1
2   3   [5, 0]      2

Here is my equivalent in Polars:

import polars as pl

dfp = pl.DataFrame({'a': [1,2,3], 'b':[[1,2,3], [2], [5,0]]})

dfp.with_columns(pl.col('b').map_elements(lambda x: len(x)).alias('c'))

I've a feeling that .map_elements(lambda x: len(x)) is not optimal.

Is a better way to do it in Polars?

You can use .list.len()

df.with_columns(c = pl.col("b").list.len())
