An array object represents a multidimensional, homogeneous array of fixed-size items. An associated data-type object describes the format of each element in the array (its byte-order, how many bytes it occupies in memory, whether it is an integer, a floating point number, or something else, etc.)
Arrays should be constructed using array
, zeros
or empty
(refer to the See Also section below). The parameters given here refer to a low-level method (ndarray(…)) for instantiating an array.
For more information, refer to the numpy
module and examine the methods and attributes of an array.
Shape of created array.
Any object that can be interpreted as a numpy data type.
Used to fill the array with data.
Offset of array data in buffer.
Strides of data in memory.
Row-major (C-style) or column-major (Fortran-style) order.
Notes
There are two modes of creating an array using __new__
:
If buffer is None, then only shape
, dtype
, and order are used.
If buffer is an object exposing the buffer interface, then all keywords are interpreted.
No __init__
method is needed because the array is fully initialized after the __new__
method.
Examples
These examples illustrate the low-level ndarray
constructor. Refer to the See Also section above for easier ways of constructing an ndarray.
First mode, buffer is None:
>>> import numpy as np >>> np.ndarray(shape=(2,2), dtype=float, order='F') array([[0.0e+000, 0.0e+000], # random [ nan, 2.5e-323]])
Second mode:
>>> np.ndarray((2,), buffer=np.array([1,2,3]), ... offset=np.int_().itemsize, ... dtype=int) # offset = 1*itemsize, i.e. skip first element array([2, 3])
T
ndarray
View of the transposed array.
data
buffer
Python buffer object pointing to the start of the array’s data.
dtype
dtype object
Data-type of the array’s elements.
flags
dict
Information about the memory layout of the array.
flat
numpy.flatiter object
A 1-D iterator over the array.
imag
ndarray
The imaginary part of the array.
real
ndarray
The real part of the array.
size
int
Number of elements in the array.
itemsize
int
Length of one array element in bytes.
nbytes
int
Total bytes consumed by the elements of the array.
ndim
int
Number of array dimensions.
shape
tuple of ints
Tuple of array dimensions.
strides
tuple of ints
Tuple of bytes to step in each dimension when traversing an array.
ctypes
ctypes object
An object to simplify the interaction of the array with the ctypes module.
base
ndarray
Base object if memory is from some other object.
