Interpret the input as a matrix and display a different type for the output in Numpy


To Interpret the input as a matrix, use the numpy.asmatrix() method in Python Numpy. The dtype parameter is used to set the type of the output array. Unlike matrix, asmatrix does not make a copy if the input is already a matrix or an ndarray. Equivalent to matrix(data, copy=False).

NumPy offers comprehensive mathematical functions, random number generators, linear algebra routines, Fourier transforms, and more. It supports a wide range of hardware and computing platforms, and plays well with distributed, GPU, and sparse array libraries.

Steps

At first, import the required library −

import numpy as np

Create a 2d array −

arr = np.array([[36, 36, 78, 88], [92, 81, 98, 45], [22, 67, 54, 69 ], [69, 80, 80, 99]])

Displaying our array −

print("Array...
",arr)

Get the datatype −

print("
Array datatype...
",arr.dtype)

Get the dimensions of the Array −

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

Get the shape of the Array −

print("
Our Array Shape...
",arr.shape)

Get the number of elements of the Array −

print("
Elements in the Array...
",arr.size)

To Interpret the input as a matrix, use the numpy.asmatrix() method. The dtype parameter is used to set the type of the output array −

res = np.asmatrix(arr, dtype = float)
print("
Result...
",res)

Example

import numpy as np

# Create a 2d array
arr = np.array([[36, 36, 78, 88], [92, 81, 98, 45], [22, 67, 54, 69], [69, 80, 80, 99]])

# Displaying our array
print("Array...
",arr) # Get the datatype print("
Array datatype...
",arr.dtype) # Get the dimensions of the Array print("
Array Dimensions...
",arr.ndim) # Get the shape of the Array print("
Our Array Shape...
",arr.shape) # Get the number of elements of the Array print("
Elements in the Array...
",arr.size) # To Interpret the input as a matrix, use the numpy.asmatrix() method in Python Numpy # The dtype parameter is used to set the type of the output array res = np.asmatrix(arr, dtype = float) print("
Result...
",res)

Output

Array...
[[36 36 78 88]
[92 81 98 45]
[22 67 54 69]
[69 80 80 99]]

Array datatype...
int64

Array Dimensions...
2

Our Array Shape...
(4, 4)

Elements in the Array...
16

Result...
[[36. 36. 78. 88.]
[92. 81. 98. 45.]
[22. 67. 54. 69.]
[69. 80. 80. 99.]]
