numpy.ndarray.getfield() function return a field of the given array as a certain type.

Syntax : numpy.ndarray.getfield(dtype, offset=0)

Parameters :

Code #1 :

# Python program explaining 
# numpy.ndarray.getfield() function 
  
# importing numpy as geek  
import numpy as geek  
            
x = geek.diag([1.+1.j]*2) 
            
gfg = x.getfield(geek.float64) 
      
print(gfg) 

Output :

[[ 1.  0.]
 [ 0.  1.]]

Code #2 :

# Python program explaining 
# numpy.ndarray.getfield() function 
  
# importing numpy as geek  
import numpy as geek  
            
x = geek.diag([2.+2.j]*2) 
            
gfg = x.getfield(geek.float64, offset = 8) 
      
print(gfg)
