numpy.matrix.squeeze — NumPy v1.13 Manual (original) (raw)

matrix. squeeze(axis=None)[source]

Return a possibly reshaped matrix.

Refer to numpy.squeeze for more documentation.

Parameters: axis : None or int or tuple of ints, optional Selects a subset of the single-dimensional entries in the shape. If an axis is selected with shape entry greater than one, an error is raised.
Returns: squeezed : matrix The matrix, but as a (1, N) matrix if it had shape (N, 1).

Notes

If m has a single column then that column is returned as the single row of a matrix. Otherwise m is returned. The returned matrix is always either m itself or a view into m. Supplying an axis keyword argument will not affect the returned matrix but it may cause an error to be raised.

Examples

c = np.matrix([[1], [2]]) c matrix([[1], [2]]) c.squeeze() matrix([[1, 2]]) r = c.T r matrix([[1, 2]]) r.squeeze() matrix([[1, 2]]) m = np.matrix([[1, 2], [3, 4]]) m.squeeze() matrix([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
