ma.getdata(a, subok=True)[source]#

Return the data of a masked array as an ndarray.

Return the data of a (if any) as an ndarray if a is a MaskedArray, else return a as a ndarray or subclass (depending on subok) if not.

Parameters:

aarray_like

Input MaskedArray, alternatively a ndarray or a subclass thereof.

subokbool

Whether to force the output to be a pure ndarray (False) or to return a subclass of ndarray if appropriate (True, default).

Return the mask of a masked array, or nomask.

getmaskarray

Return the mask of a masked array, or full array of False.

Examples

import numpy as np import numpy.ma as ma a = ma.masked_equal([[1,2],[3,4]], 2) a masked_array( data=[[1, --], [3, 4]], mask=[[False, True], [False, False]], fill_value=2) ma.getdata(a) array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])

Equivalently use the MaskedArray data attribute.

a.data array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
