BUG: usecols in pandas.read_csv has incorrect behavior when using pyarrow engine

[karlestira]

Pandas version checks

• I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

• I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

• I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas

df = pandas.read_csv(file, header=None, sep="\t", usecols=[0, 1, 2], dtype="string[pyarrow]", dtype_backend="pyarrow", engine="pyarrow")

Issue Description

my file is like this(no header, tab delimiter):
chr1 11874 12227 chr1 11874 12227 DDX11L1:NR_046018.2:+:3:exon1
chr1 12228 12612 chr1 12228 12612 DDX11L1:NR_046018.2:+:3:intron1
chr1 12613 12721 chr1 12613 12721 DDX11L1:NR_046018.2:+:3:exon2
chr1 12722 13220 chr1 12722 13220 DDX11L1:NR_046018.2:+:3:intron2
chr1 13221 14829 chr1 14362 14829 WASH7P:NR_024540.1:-:11:exon11

when I use pyarrow engine:
df = pandas.read_csv(file, header=None, sep="\t", usecols=[0, 1, 2], dtype="string[pyarrow]", dtype_backend="pyarrow", engine="pyarrow")

I get:
TypeError: expected bytes, int found

when I use C engine:
df = pandas.read_csv(file, header=None, sep="\t", usecols=[0, 1, 2])

I get a correct df.

I know we can use df.loc/df.iloc/df.drop or anything like these to get the same output. However, In some case, the col num in input file may be very big, so use "usecols" instead of "read all then drop some cols" is very important.

Expected Behavior

When using pyarrow engine, pandas.read_csv's behavior should consistent with C engine.

Could you use io.StringIO to make your example copy-pastable?
