Return the data portion of the masked array as a hierarchical Python list
To return the data portion of the masked array as a hierarchical Python list, use the ma.MaskedArray.tolist() method in Numpy. Data items are converted to the nearest compatible Python type.
Masked values are converted to fill_value. If fill_value is None, the corresponding entries in the output list will be None. The method returns the Python list representation of the masked array.
A masked array is the combination of a standard numpy.ndarray and a mask. 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 int elements using the numpy.array() method −
arr = np.array([[49, 85, 45], [67, 33, 59]])
print("Array...
", arr)
print("
Array type...
", arr.dtype)Get the dimensions of the Array −
print("Array Dimensions...
",arr.ndim)
Create a masked array and mask some of them as invalid −
maskArr = ma.masked_array(arr, mask =[[0, 0, 1], [ 0, 1, 0]])
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)
Get the shape of the Masked Array −
print("
Our Masked Array Shape...
",maskArr.shape)Get the number of elements of the Masked Array −
print("
Elements in the Masked Array...
",maskArr.size)
To return the data portion of the masked array as a hierarchical Python list, use the ma.MaskedArray.tolist() method in Numpy −
print("
Result of the transformation...
",maskArr.tolist())Example
# Python ma.MaskedArray - Return the data portion of the masked array as a hierarchical Python list
import numpy as np
import numpy.ma as ma
# Create an array with int elements using the numpy.array() method
arr = np.array([[49, 85, 45], [67, 33, 59]])
print("Array...
", arr)
print("
Array type...
", arr.dtype)
# Get the dimensions of the Array
print("
Array Dimensions...
",arr.ndim)
# Create a masked array and mask some of them as invalid
maskArr = ma.masked_array(arr, mask =[[0, 0, 1], [ 0, 1, 0]])
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)
# Get the shape of the Masked Array
print("
Our Masked Array Shape...
",maskArr.shape)
# Get the number of elements of the Masked Array
print("
Elements in the Masked Array...
",maskArr.size)
# To return the data portion of the masked array as a hierarchical Python list, use the ma.MaskedArray.tolist() method in Numpy
# Data items are converted to the nearest compatible Python type.
# Masked values are converted to "fill_value" parameter.
# We have set fill_value as None, i.e. the corresponding entries in the output list will be None.
print("
Result of the transformation...
",maskArr.tolist())Output
Array... [[49 85 45] [67 33 59]] Array type... int64 Array Dimensions... 2 Our Masked Array [[49 85 --] [67 -- 59]] Our Masked Array type... int64 Our Masked Array Dimensions... 2 Our Masked Array Shape... (2, 3) Elements in the Masked Array... 6 Result of the transformation... [[49, 85, None], [67, None, 59]]
