The numpy.less() : checks whether x1 is lesser than x2 or not. Syntax :
numpy.less(x1, x2[, out])
Parameters :
x1, x2 : [array_like]Input arrays. If x1.shape != x2.shape, they must be broadcastable to a common shape out : [ndarray, boolean]Array of bools, or a single bool if x1 and x2 are scalars.
Return :
Boolean array indicating results, whether x1 is lesser than x2 or not.
Code 1 :
Python
# Python Program illustrating # numpy.less() method import numpy as geek a = geek.less([ 8. , 2. ], [ 5. , 3. ]) print ("Not equal : \n", a, "\n") b = geek.less([ 2 , 2 ], [[ 1 , 3 ],[ 1 , 4 ]]) print ("Not equal : \n", b, "\n") a = geek.array([ 4 , 2 ]) b = geek.array([ 6 , 2 ]) print ("Is a lesser than b : ", a < b) |
Output :
Not equal : [False True] Not equal : [[False True] [False True]] Is a lesser than b : [ True False]]
Code 2 :
Python
# Python Program illustrating # numpy.less() method import numpy as geek # Here we will compare Complex values with int a = geek.array([ 1j , 2 ]) b = geek.array([ 1 , 2 ]) # indicating 1j is lesser than 1 print ("Comparing complex with int : ", a < b) # indicating 1j is lesser than 1 d = geek.less(a, b) print ("\n Comparing complex with int .less() : ", d) |
Output :
Comparing complex with int : [ True False] Comparing complex with int .less() : [ True False]
Code 3 :
Python
# Python Program illustrating # numpy.less() method import numpy as geek # Here we will compare Float with int values a = geek.array([ 1.1 , 1 ]) b = geek.array([ 1 , 2 ]) # indicating 1.1 is greater than 1 print ("Comparing float with int : ", a < b) # indicating 1.1 is greater than 1 d = geek.less(a, b) print ("\n Comparing float with int using .less() : ", d) |
Output :
Comparing float with int : [False True] Comparing float with int using .less() : [False True]
