numpy.ndarray.copy — NumPy v1.13 Manual (original) (raw)

ndarray. copy(order='C')

Return a copy of the array.

Parameters: order : {‘C’, ‘F’, ‘A’, ‘K’}, optional Controls the memory layout of the copy. ‘C’ means C-order, ‘F’ means F-order, ‘A’ means ‘F’ if a is Fortran contiguous, ‘C’ otherwise. ‘K’ means match the layout of a as closely as possible. (Note that this function and :func:numpy.copy are very similar, but have different default values for their order= arguments.)

Examples

x = np.array([[1,2,3],[4,5,6]], order='F')

x array([[0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0]])

y array([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])

y.flags['C_CONTIGUOUS'] True
