Code 1 : Working




# Python program explaining
# isscalar() function
import numpy as np
  
in_array = [1, 3, 5, 4]
print ("Input array : ", in_array)
  
isscalar_values = np.isscalar(in_array)
print ("\nIs scalar : ", isscalar_values)
  
# input
print ("\nisscalar(7) : ", np.isscalar(7))
  
# list input 
print ("\nisscalar([7]) : ", np.isscalar([7]))


Output :

Input array :  [1, 3, 5, 4]
