Convert masked array element to int Type in NumPy

To convert masked array to int type, use the ma.MaskedArray.__int__() method in Numpy. A mask is either nomask, indicating that no value of the associated array is invalid, or an array of booleans that determines for each element of the associated array whether the value is valid or not.

Steps

At first, import the required library −

import numpy as np
import numpy.ma as ma

Create an array with using the numpy.array() method −

arr = np.array([14.76])
print("Array...", arr)
print("
Array type...", arr.dtype)

Get the dimensions of the Array −

print("
Array Dimensions...",arr.ndim)

Create a masked array −

maskArr = ma.masked_array(arr, mask =[False])
print("
Our Masked Array
", maskArr)
print("
Our Masked Array type...
", maskArr.dtype)

Get the dimensions of the Masked Array −

print("
Our Masked Array Dimensions...
",maskArr.ndim)

Convert masked array to int type, use the ma.MaskedArray.__int__() method in Numpy −

print("
Result Converted to int type...
",maskArr.__int__())

Example

import numpy as np
import numpy.ma as ma

# Create an array with using the numpy.array() method
arr = np.array([14.76])
print("Array...", arr)
print("
Array type...", arr.dtype)

# Get the dimensions of the Array
print("
Array Dimensions...",arr.ndim)

# Create a masked array
maskArr = ma.masked_array(arr, mask =[False])
print("
Our Masked Array
", maskArr)
print("
Our Masked Array type...
", maskArr.dtype)

# Get the dimensions of the Masked Array
print("
Our Masked Array Dimensions...
",maskArr.ndim)

# To convert masked array to int type, use the ma.MaskedArray.__int__() method in Numpy
print("
Result Converted to int type...
",maskArr.__int__())

Output

Array... [14.76]

Array type... float64

Array Dimensions... 1

Our Masked Array
[14.76]

Our Masked Array type...
float64

Our Masked Array Dimensions...
1

Result Converted to int type...
