numpy.matlib.eye — NumPy v1.15 Manual (original) (raw)

numpy.matlib. eye(n, M=None, k=0, dtype=<class 'float'>, order='C')[source]

Return a matrix with ones on the diagonal and zeros elsewhere.

Parameters: n : int Number of rows in the output. M : int, optional Number of columns in the output, defaults to n. k : int, optional Index of the diagonal: 0 refers to the main diagonal, a positive value refers to an upper diagonal, and a negative value to a lower diagonal. dtype : dtype, optional Data-type of the returned matrix. order : {‘C’, ‘F’}, optional Whether the output should be stored in row-major (C-style) or column-major (Fortran-style) order in memory. New in version 1.14.0.
Returns: I : matrix A n x M matrix where all elements are equal to zero, except for the _k_-th diagonal, whose values are equal to one.
