numpy.stack — NumPy v1.13 Manual (original) (raw)

numpy. stack(arrays, axis=0)[source]

Join a sequence of arrays along a new axis.

The axis parameter specifies the index of the new axis in the dimensions of the result. For example, if axis=0 it will be the first dimension and if axis=-1 it will be the last dimension.

New in version 1.10.0.

Parameters: arrays : sequence of array_like Each array must have the same shape. axis : int, optional The axis in the result array along which the input arrays are stacked.
Returns: stacked : ndarray The stacked array has one more dimension than the input arrays.

split

Split array into a list of multiple sub-arrays of equal size.

block

Examples

arrays = [np.random.randn(3, 4) for _ in range(10)] np.stack(arrays, axis=0).shape (10, 3, 4)

np.stack(arrays, axis=1).shape (3, 10, 4)

np.stack(arrays, axis=2).shape (3, 4, 10)

a = np.array([1, 2, 3]) b = np.array([2, 3, 4]) np.stack((a, b)) array([[1, 2, 3], [2, 3, 4]])

np.stack((a, b), axis=-1) array([[1, 2], [2, 3], [3, 4]])
