nums.numpy.concatenate

nums.numpy.concatenate(arrays, axis=0, out=None)[source]

Join a sequence of arrays along an existing axis.

This docstring was copied from numpy.concatenate.

Some inconsistencies with the NumS version may exist.

Parameters
  • a1 (sequence of array_like) – The arrays must have the same shape, except in the dimension corresponding to axis (the first, by default).

  • a2 (sequence of array_like) – The arrays must have the same shape, except in the dimension corresponding to axis (the first, by default).

  • .. (sequence of array_like) – The arrays must have the same shape, except in the dimension corresponding to axis (the first, by default).

  • axis (int, optional) – The axis along which the arrays will be joined. If axis is None, arrays are flattened before use. Default is 0.

  • out (BlockArray, optional) – If provided, the destination to place the result. The shape must be correct, matching that of what concatenate would have returned if no out argument were specified.

Returns

res – The concatenated array.

Return type

BlockArray

See also

ma.concatenate

Concatenate function that preserves input masks.

array_split

Split an array into multiple sub-arrays of equal or near-equal size.

split

Split array into a list of multiple sub-arrays of equal size.

hsplit

Split array into multiple sub-arrays horizontally (column wise).

vsplit

Split array into multiple sub-arrays vertically (row wise).

dsplit

Split array into multiple sub-arrays along the 3rd axis (depth).

stack

Stack a sequence of arrays along a new axis.

block

Assemble arrays from blocks.

hstack

Stack arrays in sequence horizontally (column wise).

vstack

Stack arrays in sequence vertically (row wise).

dstack

Stack arrays in sequence depth wise (along third dimension).

column_stack

Stack 1-D arrays as columns into a 2-D array.

Notes

When one or more of the arrays to be concatenated is a MaskedArray, this function will return a MaskedArray object instead of an BlockArray, but the input masks are not preserved. In cases where a MaskedArray is expected as input, use the ma.concatenate function from the masked array module instead.

out is currently not supported for concatenate.

Examples

The doctests shown below are copied from NumPy. They won’t show the correct result until you operate get().

>>> a = nps.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])  
>>> b = nps.array([[5, 6]])  
>>> nps.concatenate((a, b), axis=0).get()  
array([[1, 2],
       [3, 4],
       [5, 6]])
>>> nps.concatenate((a, b.T), axis=1).get()  
array([[1, 2, 5],
       [3, 4, 6]])
