arr = geek.array([[0, 1], [2, 3]])
 
gfg = arr.dtype
 
print (gfg)

Output :

int64

How to check the Data Type of NumPy Array Elements

To check the data type of NumPy array elements we use ndarray.dtype attribute of the NumPy library in Python

Let us look at the example to understand it better.

Python3
import numpy as geek 
   
arr = geek.array([  0.,  1.,  2.])
 
gfg = arr.dtype
