Return a new Three-Dimensional array without initializing entries in Numpy

To return a new 3D array without initializing entries, use the numpy.empty() method in Python Numpy. The 1st parameter is the Shape of the empty array. The dtype is the desired output datatype for the array, e.g, numpy.int8. Default is numpy.float64. The order suggests whether to store multi-dimensional data in row-major (C-style) or column-major (Fortran-style) order in memory.

The function empty() returns an array of uninitialized (arbitrary) data of the given shape, dtype, and order. Object arrays will be initialized to None.

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

Return a new 3D array without initializing entries, use the numpy.empty() method in Python Numpy −

arr = np.empty([3, 3, 3])
print("Array...\n",arr)

Get the type of the array −

print("\nArray type...\n", arr.dtype)

Get the dimensions of the Array −

print("\nOur Array Dimensions...\n", arr.ndim)

Get the number of elements in the Array −

print("\nNumber of elements...\n", arr.size)

Example

import numpy as np

# To return a new 3D array without initializing entries, use the numpy.empty() method in Python Numpy
# The 1st parameter is the Shape of the empty array
arr = np.empty([3, 3, 3])

# Display the array
print("Array...\n",arr)

# Get the type of the array
print("\nArray type...\n", arr.dtype)

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

# Get the number of elements in the Array
print("\nNumber of elements...\n", arr.size)

Output
