numpy.chararray.base — NumPy v1.11 Manual (original) (raw)

chararray.base¶

Base object if memory is from some other object.

Examples

The base of an array that owns its memory is None:

x = np.array([1,2,3,4]) x.base is None True

Slicing creates a view, whose memory is shared with x:

y = x[2:] y.base is x True
