Attributes Documentation

aop¶: Associated object to do array operations.

backend¶: Backend interface.

dtype¶: Data type.

length¶: Length as a numpy.int32 instance.

ndim¶: Number of dimensions of the array.

shape¶: Shape of the array.

ua¶: Underlying array.

Methods Documentation

as_ndarray()¶

Return the underlying array as a numpy.ndarray instance. If the underlying array is already of this type, no copy is done.

Returns: underlying array as a numpy.ndarray.
Return type: numpy.ndarray

astype(dtype)¶

Convert the array into the given data type. Only conversions from farray and carray objects are allowed.

Parameters: dtype (numpy.dtype) – data type.
Returns: Converted array.
Return type: farray or carray
Raises: ValueError – If the conversion is not allowed.

copy()¶

Copy this array.

Returns: Copy of this array.

classmethod from_ndarray(a, backend)[source]¶

Create this class from a numpy.ndarray instance. If the number of dimensions is greater than one, the array is flattened, and each column is assumed to belong to a different parameter.

Parameters

a (numpy.ndarray) – array.
backend (Backend) – backend where to create this array.

Returns

Newly created array.

get(i)¶

Get an element of the array. The output type depends on the type of array.

Parameters: i (int) – index.
Returns: value at the given index.
Return type: float, int or bool

to_backend(backend)¶

Send the array to the given backend.

Parameters: backend (Backend) – backend where to transfer the array.
Returns: this array on a new backend.
Return type: marray
