numpy.issctype() function is used to determine whether the given object represents a scalar data-type.If the given object represents a scalar data-type it returns true, otherwise it returns false.

Syntax : numpy.issctype(rep)

Parameters :
rep : any input.

Return : [bool] Boolean result of check whether rep is a scalar dtype.

Code #1 :

# Python program explaining 
# numpy.issctype() function 
  
# importing numpy 
import numpy as geek 
  
# Checking if integers are scalar type 
  
rep = geek.int64 
  
# output boolean value 
out_val = geek.issctype(rep) 
print ("Are integers scalar: ", out_val)  

Output :

Are integers scalar:  True

Code #2 :

# Python program explaining 
# numpy.issctype() function 
  
# importing numpy 
import numpy as geek 
  
# Checking if list is scalar type 
  
rep =[ 1, 4, 7] 
  
# output boolean value 
out_val = geek.issctype(rep) 
print ("Is list scalar: ", out_val)
