Python | Numpy ndarray.array()

0 0 1 minute read

With the help of ndarray.__array__() method, we can create a new array as we want by giving a parameter as dtype and we can get a copy of an array that doesn’t change the data element of original array if we change any element in the new one.

Syntax : ndarray.__array__()

Return :

Returns either a new reference to self if dtype is not given

New array of provided data type if dtype is different from the current dtype of the array.

Example #1 :

In this example we can see that we change the dtype of a new array by just using ndarray.__array__() method.

# import the important module in python 
import numpy as np 
        
# make an array with numpy 
gfg = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) 
        
# applying ndarray.__array__() method 
zambiatek = gfg.__array__(float) 
  
print(zambiatek) 

Output:

[ 1.  2.  3.  4.  5.]

Example #2 :

# import the important module in python 
import numpy as np 
        
# make an array with numpy 
gfg = np.array([[1.1, 2, 3.3, 4, 5], 
                [6, 5.2, 4, 3, 2.2]]) 
        
# applying ndarray.__array__() method 
zambiatek = gfg.__array__(int) 
  
print(zambiatek)
