The numpy.where() function returns the indices of elements in an input array where the given condition is satisfied.
Syntax :numpy.where(condition[, x, y])
Parameters:
condition : When True, yield x, otherwise yield y.
x, y : Values from which to choose. x, y and condition need to be broadcastable to some shape.Returns:
out : [ndarray or tuple of ndarrays] If both x and y are specified, the output array contains elements of x where condition is True, and elements from y elsewhere.If only condition is given, return the tuple condition.nonzero(), the indices where condition is True.
Code #1:
# Python program explaining # where() function import numpy as np np.where([[ True , False ], [ True , True ]], [[ 1 , 2 ], [ 3 , 4 ]], [[ 5 , 6 ], [ 7 , 8 ]]) |
Output :
array([[1, 6], [3, 4]])
Code #2:
# Python program explaining # where() function import numpy as np # a is an array of integers. a = np.array([[ 1 , 2 , 3 ], [ 4 , 5 , 6 ]]) print (a) print ( 'Indices of elements <4' ) b = np.where(a< 4 ) print (b) print ( "Elements which are <4" ) print (a[b]) |
Output :
[[1 2 3] [4 5 6]] Indices of elements <4 (array([0, 0, 0], dtype=int64), array([0, 1, 2], dtype=int64)) Elements which are <4 array([1, 2, 3])
