Last Updated : 02 Dec, 2019

With the help of **np.ediff1d()** method, we can get the 1D array of differences between two consecutive elements by using np.ediff1d() method.

Syntax : np.ediff1d(array) Return : Return 1D array having differences of consecutive elements.

**Example #1 :**In this example we can see that by using np.ediff1d() method, we are able to get the 1D array of consecutive differences of the elements of an array using this method.

Python3 1=1 `

import numpy

import numpy as np

using np.ediff1d() method

arr = np.array([1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11]) gfg = np.ediff1d(arr)

print(gfg)

`

Output :

[1 1 2 2 4]

Example #2 :

Python3 1=1 `

import numpy

import numpy as np

using np.ediff1d() method

arr = np.array([1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47]) gfg = np.ediff1d(arr)

print(gfg)

`

Output :
