一、NumPy简介

  其官网是:http://www.numpy.org/

  NumPy是Python语言的一个扩充程序库。支持高级大量的维度数组与矩阵运算,此外也针对数组运算提供大量的数学函数库。Numpy内部解除了Python的GIL(全局解释器锁),运行效率极好,是大量机器学习框架的基础库!

  关于GIL请参考博客:http://www.cnblogs.com/wj-1314/p/9056555.html

NumPy的全名为Numeric Python,是一个开源的Python科学计算库,它包括:

  • 一个强大的N维数组对象ndrray;
  • 比较成熟的(广播)函数库;
  • 用于整合C/C++和Fortran代码的工具包;
  • 实用的线性代数、傅里叶变换和随机数生成函数

1.1  NumPy的优点:

  • 对于同样的数值计算任务,使用NumPy要比直接编写Python代码便捷得多;
  • NumPy中的数组的存储效率和输入输出性能均远远优于Python中等价的基本数据结构,且其能够提升的性能是与数组中的元素成比例的;
  • NumPy的大部分代码都是用C语言写的,其底层算法在设计时就有着优异的性能,这使得NumPy比纯Python代码高效得多

         当然,NumPy也有其不足之处,由于NumPy使用内存映射文件以达到最优的数据读写性能,而内存的大小限制了其对TB级大文件的处理;此外,NumPy数组的通用性不及Python提供的list容器。因此,在科学计算之外的领域,NumPy的优势也就不那么明显。

 

二、数组ndarray

  NumPy最重要的一个特点就是其N维数组对象(即ndarray),该对象是一个快速而灵活的大数据集容器,该对象由两部分组成:

  • 实际的数据;
  • 描述这些数据的元数据;

  Numpy中定义的最重要的对象是成为ndarray的N维数组类型。它描述相同类型的元素集合。可以使用基于零的索引访问集合中的项目。

  ndarray中的每个元素在内存中使用相同大小的块。ndarray中每个元素是数据类型对象的对象(称为dtype)

  大部分的数组操作仅仅是修改元数据部分,而不改变其底层的实际数据。数组的维数称为秩,简单来说就是如果你需要获取数组中一个特定元素所需的坐标数,如a是一个2×3×4的矩阵,你索引其中的一个元素必须给定三个坐标a[x,y,z],故它的维数就是3。而轴可以理解为一种对数组空间的分割,以数组a为例,如果我们以0为轴,那么a可以看成是一个由两个元素构成的数组,其中每个元素都是一个3×4的数组。

  我们可以直接将数组看作一种新的数据类型,就像list、tuple、dict一样,但数组中所有元素的类型必须是一致的,Python支持的数据类型有整型、浮点型以及复数型,但这些类型不足以满足科学计算的需求,因此NumPy中添加了许多其他的数据类型,如bool、inti、int64、float32、complex64等。同时,它也有许多其特有的属性和方法。

官方解释:

class ndarray(object):
    """
    ndarray(shape, dtype=float, buffer=None, offset=0,
                strides=None, order=None)
    
        An array object represents a multidimensional, homogeneous array
        of fixed-size items.  An associated data-type object describes the
        format of each element in the array (its byte-order, how many bytes it
        occupies in memory, whether it is an integer, a floating point number,
        or something else, etc.)
    
        Arrays should be constructed using `array`, `zeros` or `empty` (refer
        to the See Also section below).  The parameters given here refer to
        a low-level method (`ndarray(...)`) for instantiating an array.
    
        For more information, refer to the `numpy` module and examine the
        methods and attributes of an array.
    
        Parameters
        ----------
        (for the __new__ method; see Notes below)
    
        shape : tuple of ints
            Shape of created array.
        dtype : data-type, optional
            Any object that can be interpreted as a numpy data type.
        buffer : object exposing buffer interface, optional
            Used to fill the array with data.
        offset : int, optional
            Offset of array data in buffer.
        strides : tuple of ints, optional
            Strides of data in memory.
        order : {‘C‘, ‘F‘}, optional
            Row-major (C-style) or column-major (Fortran-style) order.
    
        Attributes
        ----------
        T : ndarray
            Transpose of the array.
        data : buffer
            The array‘s elements, in memory.
        dtype : dtype object
            Describes the format of the elements in the array.
        flags : dict
            Dictionary containing information related to memory use, e.g.,
            ‘C_CONTIGUOUS‘, ‘OWNDATA‘, ‘WRITEABLE‘, etc.
        flat : numpy.flatiter object
            Flattened version of the array as an iterator.  The iterator
            allows assignments, e.g., ``x.flat = 3`` (See `ndarray.flat` for
            assignment examples; TODO).
        imag : ndarray
            Imaginary part of the array.
        real : ndarray
            Real part of the array.
        size : int
            Number of elements in the array.
        itemsize : int
            The memory use of each array element in bytes.
        nbytes : int
            The total number of bytes required to store the array data,
            i.e., ``itemsize * size``.
        ndim : int
            The array‘s number of dimensions.
        shape : tuple of ints
            Shape of the array.
        strides : tuple of ints
            The step-size required to move from one element to the next in
            memory. For example, a contiguous ``(3, 4)`` array of type
            ``int16`` in C-order has strides ``(8, 2)``.  This implies that
            to move from element to element in memory requires jumps of 2 bytes.
            To move from row-to-row, one needs to jump 8 bytes at a time
            (``2 * 4``).
        ctypes : ctypes object
            Class containing properties of the array needed for interaction
            with ctypes.
        base : ndarray
            If the array is a view into another array, that array is its `base`
            (unless that array is also a view).  The `base` array is where the
            array data is actually stored.
    
        See Also
        --------
        array : Construct an array.
        zeros : Create an array, each element of which is zero.
        empty : Create an array, but leave its allocated memory unchanged (i.e.,
                it contains "garbage").
        dtype : Create a data-type.
    
        Notes
        -----
        There are two modes of creating an array using ``__new__``:
    
        1. If `buffer` is None, then only `shape`, `dtype`, and `order`
           are used.
        2. If `buffer` is an object exposing the buffer interface, then
           all keywords are interpreted.
    
        No ``__init__`` method is needed because the array is fully initialized
        after the ``__new__`` method.
    
        Examples
        --------
        These examples illustrate the low-level `ndarray` constructor.  Refer
        to the `See Also` section above for easier ways of constructing an
        ndarray.
    
        First mode, `buffer` is None:
    
        >>> np.ndarray(shape=(2,2), dtype=float, order=‘F‘)
        array([[ -1.13698227e+002,   4.25087011e-303],
               [  2.88528414e-306,   3.27025015e-309]])         #random
    
        Second mode:
    
        >>> np.ndarray((2,), buffer=np.array([1,2,3]),
        ...            offset=np.int_().itemsize,
        ...            dtype=int) # offset = 1*itemsize, i.e. skip first element
        array([2, 3])

            Copy of the array, cast to a specified type.
        
            Parameters
            ----------
            dtype : str or dtype
                Typecode or data-type to which the array is cast.
            order : {‘C‘, ‘F‘, ‘A‘, ‘K‘}, optional
                Controls the memory layout order of the result.
                ‘C‘ means C order, ‘F‘ means Fortran order, ‘A‘
                means ‘F‘ order if all the arrays are Fortran contiguous,
                ‘C‘ order otherwise, and ‘K‘ means as close to the
                order the array elements appear in memory as possible.
                Default is ‘K‘.
            casting : {‘no‘, ‘equiv‘, ‘safe‘, ‘same_kind‘, ‘unsafe‘}, optional
                Controls what kind of data casting may occur. Defaults to ‘unsafe‘
                for backwards compatibility.
        
                  * ‘no‘ means the data types should not be cast at all.
                  * ‘equiv‘ means only byte-order changes are allowed.
                  * ‘safe‘ means only casts which can preserve values are allowed.
                  * ‘same_kind‘ means only safe casts or casts within a kind,
                    like float64 to float32, are allowed.
                  * ‘unsafe‘ means any data conversions may be done.
            subok : bool, optional
                If True, then sub-classes will be passed-through (default), otherwise
                the returned array will be forced to be a base-class array.
            copy : bool, optional
                By default, astype always returns a newly allocated array. If this
                is set to false, and the `dtype`, `order`, and `subok`
                requirements are satisfied, the input array is returned instead
                of a copy.
        
            Returns
            -------
            arr_t : ndarray
                Unless `copy` is False and the other conditions for returning the input
                array are satisfied (see description for `copy` input parameter), `arr_t`
                is a new array of the same shape as the input array, with dtype, order
                given by `dtype`, `order`.
        
            Notes
            -----
            Starting in NumPy 1.9, astype method now returns an error if the string
            dtype to cast to is not long enough in ‘safe‘ casting mode to hold the max
            value of integer/float array that is being casted. Previously the casting
            was allowed even if the result was truncated.
        
            Raises
            ------
            ComplexWarning
                When casting from complex to float or int. To avoid this,
                one should use ``a.real.astype(t)``.

        a.getfield(dtype, offset=0)
        
            Returns a field of the given array as a certain type.
        
            A field is a view of the array data with a given data-type. The values in
            the view are determined by the given type and the offset into the current
            array in bytes. The offset needs to be such that the view dtype fits in the
            array dtype; for example an array of dtype complex128 has 16-byte elements.
            If taking a view with a 32-bit integer (4 bytes), the offset needs to be
            between 0 and 12 bytes.
        
            Parameters
            ----------
            dtype : str or dtype
                The data type of the view. The dtype size of the view can not be larger
                than that of the array itself.
            offset : int
                Number of bytes to skip before beginning the element view.
        
            Examples
            --------
            >>> x = np.diag([1.+1.j]*2)
            >>> x[1, 1] = 2 + 4.j
            >>> x

            Copy an element of an array to a standard Python scalar and return it.
        
            Parameters
            ----------
            \*args : Arguments (variable number and type)
        
                * none: in this case, the method only works for arrays
                  with one element (`a.size == 1`), which element is
                  copied into a standard Python scalar object and returned.
        
                * int_type: this argument is interpreted as a flat index into
                  the array, specifying which element to copy and return.
        
                * tuple of int_types: functions as does a single int_type argument,
                  except that the argument is interpreted as an nd-index into the
                  array.
        
            Returns
            -------
            z : Standard Python scalar object
                A copy of the specified element of the array as a suitable
                Python scalar
        
            Notes
            -----
            When the data type of `a` is longdouble or clongdouble, item() returns
            a scalar array object because there is no available Python scalar that
            would not lose information. Void arrays return a buffer object for item(),
            unless fields are defined, in which case a tuple is returned.
        
            `item` is very similar to a[args], except, instead of an array scalar,
            a standard Python scalar is returned. This can be useful for speeding up
            access to elements of the array and doing arithmetic on elements of the
            array using Python‘s optimized math.

            There must be at least 1 argument, and define the last argument
            as *item*.  Then, ``a.itemset(*args)`` is equivalent to but faster
            than ``a[args] = item``.  The item should be a scalar value and `args`
            must select a single item in the array `a`.
        
            Parameters
            ----------
            \*args : Arguments

                If two arguments: the last argument is the value to be set
                and must be a scalar, the first argument specifies a single array
                element location. It is either an int or a tuple.
        
            Notes
            -----
            Compared to indexing syntax, `itemset` provides some speed increase
            for placing a scalar into a particular location in an `ndarray`,
            if you must do this.  However, generally this is discouraged:
            among other problems, it complicates the appearance of the code.
            Also, when using `itemset` (and `item`) inside a loop, be sure
            to assign the methods to a local variable to avoid the attribute
            look-up at each loop iteration.

                The default value (‘S‘) results in swapping the current
                byte order. The code does a case-insensitive check on the first
                letter of `new_order` for the alternatives above.  For example,

                be specified as a string, and not all fields need to be specified,
                but unspecified fields will still be used, in the order in which
                they come up in the dtype, to break ties.

            Notes

            This reallocates space for the data area if necessary.
        
            Only contiguous arrays (data elements consecutive in memory) can be
            resized.
        
            The purpose of the reference count check is to make sure you
            do not use this array as a buffer for another Python object and then
            reallocate the memory. However, reference counts can increase in
            other ways so if you are sure that you have not shared the memory
            for this array with another Python object, then you may safely set
            `refcheck` to False.
        
            Examples
            --------

            area used by `a` (see Notes below). The ALIGNED flag can only
            be set to True if the data is actually aligned according to the type.
            The WRITEBACKIFCOPY and (deprecated) UPDATEIFCOPY flags can never be set
            to True. The flag WRITEABLE can only be set to True if the array owns its
            own memory, or the ultimate owner of the memory exposes a writeable buffer
            interface, or is a string. (The exception for string is made so that
            unpickling can be done without copying memory.)
        
            Parameters
            ----------
            write : bool, optional
                Describes whether or not `a` can be written to.
            align : bool, optional
                Describes whether or not `a` is aligned properly for its type.
            uic : bool, optional
                Describes whether or not `a` is a copy of another "base" array.
        
            Notes
            -----
            Array flags provide information about how the memory area used
            for the array is to be interpreted. There are 7 Boolean flags
            in use, only four of which can be changed by the user:
            WRITEBACKIFCOPY, UPDATEIFCOPY, WRITEABLE, and ALIGNED.
        
            WRITEABLE (W) the data area can be written to;
        
            ALIGNED (A) the data and strides are aligned appropriately for the hardware
            (as determined by the compiler);
        
            UPDATEIFCOPY (U) (deprecated), replaced by WRITEBACKIFCOPY;
        
            WRITEBACKIFCOPY (X) this array is a copy of some other array (referenced
            by .base). When the C-API function PyArray_ResolveWritebackIfCopy is
            called, the base array will be updated with the contents of this array.
        
            All flags can be accessed using the single (upper case) letter as well
            as the full name.

            ----------
            fid : file or str
                An open file object, or a string containing a filename.

            format : str
                Format string for text file output.
                Each entry in the array is formatted to text by first converting

            Notes
            -----
            This is a convenience function for quick storage of array data.
            Information on endianness and precision is lost, so this method is not a
            good choice for files intended to archive data or transport data between
            machines with different endianness. Some of these problems can be overcome
            by outputting the data as text files, at the expense of speed and file
            size.
            
            When fid is a file object, array contents are directly written to the
            file, bypassing the file object‘s ``write`` method. As a result, tofile
            cannot be used with files objects supporting compression (e.g., GzipFile)
            or file-like objects that do not support ``fileno()`` (e.g., BytesIO).

            ----------
            dtype : data-type or ndarray sub-class, optional
                Data-type descriptor of the returned view, e.g., float32 or int16. The
                default, None, results in the view having the same data-type as `a`.
                This argument can also be specified as an ndarray sub-class, which
                then specifies the type of the returned object (this is equivalent to
                setting the ``type`` parameter).
            type : Python type, optional
                Type of the returned view, e.g., ndarray or matrix.  Again, the
                default None results in type preservation.
        
            Notes
            -----
            ``a.view()`` is used two different ways:
        
            ``a.view(some_dtype)`` or ``a.view(dtype=some_dtype)`` constructs a view
            of the array‘s memory with a different data-type.  This can cause a
            reinterpretation of the bytes of memory.
        
            ``a.view(ndarray_subclass)`` or ``a.view(type=ndarray_subclass)`` just
            returns an instance of `ndarray_subclass` that looks at the same array
            (same shape, dtype, etc.)  This does not cause a reinterpretation of the
            memory.
        
            For ``a.view(some_dtype)``, if ``some_dtype`` has a different number of
            bytes per entry than the previous dtype (for example, converting a
            regular array to a structured array), then the behavior of the view
            cannot be predicted just from the superficial appearance of ``a`` (shown
            by ``print(a)``). It also depends on exactly how ``a`` is stored in
            memory. Therefore if ``a`` is C-ordered versus fortran-ordered, versus
            defined as a slice or transpose, etc., the view may give different
            results.
        
        
            Examples
            --------
            >>> x = np.array([(1, 2)], dtype=[(‘a‘, np.int8), (‘b‘, np.int8)])
        
            Viewing array data using a different type and dtype:
        
            >>> y = x.view(dtype=np.int16, type=np.matrix)
            >>> y
            matrix([[513]], dtype=int16)
            >>> print(type(y))
            <class ‘numpy.matrixlib.defmatrix.matrix‘>
        
            Creating a view on a structured array so it can be used in calculations
        
            >>> x = np.array([(1, 2),(3,4)], dtype=[(‘a‘, np.int8), (‘b‘, np.int8)])
            >>> xv = x.view(dtype=np.int8).reshape(-1,2)
            >>> xv
            array([[1, 2],
                   [3, 4]], dtype=int8)
            >>> xv.mean(0)
            array([ 2.,  3.])
        
            Making changes to the view changes the underlying array
        
            >>> xv[0,1] = 20
            >>> print(x)
            [(1, 20) (3, 4)]
        
            Using a view to convert an array to a recarray:
        
            >>> z = x.view(np.recarray)
            >>> z.a
            array([1], dtype=int8)
        
            Views share data:
        
            >>> x[0] = (9, 10)
            >>> z[0]
            (9, 10)
        
            Views that change the dtype size (bytes per entry) should normally be
            avoided on arrays defined by slices, transposes, fortran-ordering, etc.:
        
            >>> x = np.array([[1,2,3],[4,5,6]], dtype=np.int16)

    when calling shared libraries with the ctypes module. The returned
    object has, among others, data, shape, and strides attributes (see
    Notes below) which themselves return ctypes objects that can be used

    Parameters
    ----------
    None

    Returns
    -------
    c : Python object
        Possessing attributes data, shape, strides, etc.

    See Also
    --------
    numpy.ctypeslib

    Notes
    -----
    Below are the public attributes of this object which were documented
    in "Guide to NumPy" (we have omitted undocumented public attributes,
    as well as documented private attributes):

    * data: A pointer to the memory area of the array as a Python integer.
      This memory area may contain data that is not aligned, or not in correct
      byte-order. The memory area may not even be writeable. The array
      flags and data-type of this array should be respected when passing this
      attribute to arbitrary C-code to avoid trouble that can include Python
      crashing. User Beware! The value of this attribute is exactly the same
      as self._array_interface_[‘data‘][0].

    * shape (c_intp*self.ndim): A ctypes array of length self.ndim where
      the basetype is the C-integer corresponding to dtype(‘p‘) on this
      platform. This base-type could be c_int, c_long, or c_longlong
      depending on the platform. The c_intp type is defined accordingly in
      numpy.ctypeslib. The ctypes array contains the shape of the underlying
      array.

    * strides (c_intp*self.ndim): A ctypes array of length self.ndim where
      the basetype is the same as for the shape attribute. This ctypes array
      contains the strides information from the underlying array. This strides
      information is important for showing how many bytes must be jumped to
      get to the next element in the array.

    * data_as(obj): Return the data pointer cast to a particular c-types object.
      For example, calling self._as_parameter_ is equivalent to
      self.data_as(ctypes.c_void_p). Perhaps you want to use the data as a
      pointer to a ctypes array of floating-point data:
      self.data_as(ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_double)).

    * shape_as(obj): Return the shape tuple as an array of some other c-types
      type. For example: self.shape_as(ctypes.c_short).

    * strides_as(obj): Return the strides tuple as an array of some other
      c-types type. For example: self.strides_as(ctypes.c_longlong).

    Be careful using the ctypes attribute - especially on temporary
    arrays or arrays constructed on the fly. For example, calling
    ``(a+b).ctypes.data_as(ctypes.c_void_p)`` returns a pointer to memory
    that is invalid because the array created as (a+b) is deallocated
    before the next Python statement. You can avoid this problem using
    either ``c=a+b`` or ``ct=(a+b).ctypes``. In the latter case, ct will
    hold a reference to the array until ct is deleted or re-assigned.

    If the ctypes module is not available, then the ctypes attribute
    of array objects still returns something useful, but ctypes objects
    are not returned and errors may be raised instead. In particular,
    the object will still have the as parameter attribute which will
    return an integer equal to the data attribute.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> import ctypes
    >>> x
    array([[0, 1],
           [2, 3]])
    >>> x.ctypes.data
    30439712
    >>> x.ctypes.data_as(ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_long))

    Attributes
    ----------
    C_CONTIGUOUS (C)
        The data is in a single, C-style contiguous segment.
    F_CONTIGUOUS (F)
        The data is in a single, Fortran-style contiguous segment.
    OWNDATA (O)
        The array owns the memory it uses or borrows it from another object.
    WRITEABLE (W)
        The data area can be written to.  Setting this to False locks
        the data, making it read-only.  A view (slice, etc.) inherits WRITEABLE
        from its base array at creation time, but a view of a writeable
        array may be subsequently locked while the base array remains writeable.
        (The opposite is not true, in that a view of a locked array may not
        be made writeable.  However, currently, locking a base object does not
        lock any views that already reference it, so under that circumstance it
        is possible to alter the contents of a locked array via a previously
        created writeable view onto it.)  Attempting to change a non-writeable
        array raises a RuntimeError exception.
    ALIGNED (A)
        The data and all elements are aligned appropriately for the hardware.
    WRITEBACKIFCOPY (X)
        This array is a copy of some other array. The C-API function
        PyArray_ResolveWritebackIfCopy must be called before deallocating
        to the base array will be updated with the contents of this array.
    UPDATEIFCOPY (U)
        (Deprecated, use WRITEBACKIFCOPY) This array is a copy of some other array.
        When this array is
        deallocated, the base array will be updated with the contents of
        this array.
    FNC
        F_CONTIGUOUS and not C_CONTIGUOUS.
    FORC
        F_CONTIGUOUS or C_CONTIGUOUS (one-segment test).
    BEHAVED (B)
        ALIGNED and WRITEABLE.
    CARRAY (CA)
        BEHAVED and C_CONTIGUOUS.
    FARRAY (FA)
        BEHAVED and F_CONTIGUOUS and not C_CONTIGUOUS.

    Notes
    -----
    The `flags` object can be accessed dictionary-like (as in ``a.flags[‘WRITEABLE‘]``),
    or by using lowercased attribute names (as in ``a.flags.writeable``). Short flag
    names are only supported in dictionary access.

    Only the WRITEBACKIFCOPY, UPDATEIFCOPY, WRITEABLE, and ALIGNED flags can be
    changed by the user, via direct assignment to the attribute or dictionary
    entry, or by calling `ndarray.setflags`.

    The array flags cannot be set arbitrarily:

    - UPDATEIFCOPY can only be set ``False``.
    - WRITEBACKIFCOPY can only be set ``False``.
    - ALIGNED can only be set ``True`` if the data is truly aligned.
    - WRITEABLE can only be set ``True`` if the array owns its own memory
      or the ultimate owner of the memory exposes a writeable buffer
      interface or is a string.

    Arrays can be both C-style and Fortran-style contiguous simultaneously.
    This is clear for 1-dimensional arrays, but can also be true for higher
    dimensional arrays.

    Even for contiguous arrays a stride for a given dimension
    ``arr.strides[dim]`` may be *arbitrary* if ``arr.shape[dim] == 1``
    or the array has no elements.
    It does *not* generally hold that ``self.strides[-1] == self.itemsize``
    for C-style contiguous arrays or ``self.strides[0] == self.itemsize`` for
    Fortran-style contiguous arrays is true."""

    This array is stored in memory as 40 bytes, one after the other
    (known as a contiguous block of memory).  The strides of an array tell
    us how many bytes we have to skip in memory to move to the next position
    along a certain axis.  For example, we have to skip 4 bytes (1 value) to
    move to the next column, but 20 bytes (5 values) to get to the same
    position in the next row.  As such, the strides for the array `x` will be
    ``(20, 4)``.

 2.3 数组的创建

  numpy中使用array()函数创建数组,array的首个参数一定是一个序列,可以是元组也可以是列表。

2.3.1  一维数组的创建

  可以使用numpy中的arange()函数创建一维有序数组,它是内置函数range的扩展版。

In [1]: import numpy as np

In [2]: ls1 = range(10)

In [3]: list(ls1)

Out[3]: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

In [4]: type(ls1)

Out[4]: range

In [5]: ls2 = np.arange(10)

In [6]: list(ls2)

Out[6]: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

In [7]: type(ls2)

Out[7]: numpy.ndarray

   通过arange生成的序列就不是简简单单的列表类型了,而是一个一维数组。

如果一维数组不是一个规律的有序元素,而是人为的输入,就需要array()函数创建了。

In [8]: arr1 = np.array((1,20,13,28,22))

In [9]: arr1

Out[9]: array([ 1, 20, 13, 28, 22])

In [10]: type(arr1)

Out[10]: numpy.ndarray

   上面是由元组序列构成的一维数组。

In [11]: arr2 = np.array([1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21])    

In [12]: arr2

Out[12]: array([ 1,  1,  2,  3,  5,  8, 13, 21])

In [13]: type(arr2)

Out[13]: numpy.ndarray

   上面是由列表序列构成的一维数组。

2.3.2  二维数组的创建

  二维数组的创建,其实在就是列表套列表或元组套元组。

In [14]: arr3 = np.array(((1,1,2,3),(5,8,13,21),(34,55,89,144)))

In [15]: arr3

Out[15]:

array([[  1,   1,   2,   3],

[  5,   8,  13,  21],

[ 34,  55,  89, 144]])

   上面使用元组套元组的方式。

In [16]: arr4 = np.array([[1,2,3,4],[5,6,7,8],[9,10,11,12]])

In [17]: arr4

Out[17]:

array([[ 1,  2,  3,  4],

[ 5,  6,  7,  8],

[ 9, 10, 11, 12]])

   上面使用列表套列表的方式。

  对于高维数组在将来的数据分析中用的比较少,这里关于高维数组的创建就不赘述了,构建方法仍然是套的方式。

   上面所介绍的都是人为设定的一维、二维或高维数组,numpy中也提供了几种特殊的数组,它们是:

In [18]: np.ones(3)  #返回一维元素全为1的数组

Out[18]: array([ 1.,  1.,  1.])

In [19]: np.ones([3,4])  #返回元素全为1的3×4二维数组

Out[19]:

array([[ 1.,  1.,  1.,  1.],

[ 1.,  1.,  1.,  1.],

[ 1.,  1.,  1.,  1.]])

 
In [20]: np.zeros(3) #返回一维元素全为0的数组

Out[20]: array([ 0.,  0.,  0.])

In [21]: np.zeros([3,4]) #返回元素全为0的3×4二维数组

Out[21]:

array([[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.],

[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.],

[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.]])

In [22]: np.empty(3) #返回一维空数组

Out[22]: array([ 0.,  0.,  0.])

In [23]: np.empty([3,4]) #返回3×4二维空数组

Out[23]:

array([[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.],

[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.],

[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.]])

 2.3.3  ones函数

  返回特定大小,以1填充的新数组

>>> import numpy as np
>>> a=np.ones(3);a
array([ 1.,  1.,  1.])
>>> b=np.ones((3,2));b
array([[ 1.,  1.],
       [ 1.,  1.],
       [ 1.,  1.]])

 2.3.4  zeros函数

  返回特定大小,以0填充的新数组。

  NumPy 数字类型是dtype(数据类型)对象的实例,每个对象具有唯一的特征。 这些类型可以是np.bool_,np.float32等。

3.1 数据类型对象(dtype)

数据类型对象描述了对应于数组的固定内存块的解释,取决于以下方面:

  • 数据类型(整数、浮点或者 Python 对象)

  • 数据大小

  • 字节序(小端或大端)

  • 在结构化类型的情况下,字段的名称,每个字段的数据类型,和每个字段占用的内存块部分。

  • 如果数据类型是子序列,它的形状和数据类型。

  字节顺序取决于数据类型的前缀<或>。<意味着编码是小端(最小有效字节存储在最小地址中)。>意味着编码是大端(最大有效字节存储在最小地址中)。

dtype语法构造:

numpy.dtype(object, align, copy)

 参数为:

Object:被转换为数据类型的对象。 

Align:如果为true,则向字段添加间隔,使其类似 C 的结构体。 

Copy: 生成dtype对象的新副本,如果为flase,结果是内建数据类型对象的引用。

 示例:

# 使用数组标量类型
import numpy as np
dt = np.dtype(np.int32)
print(dt)
# int32

# int8,int16,int32,int64 可替换为等价的字符串 ‘i1‘,‘i2‘,‘i4‘,以及其他。
dt = np.dtype(‘i4‘)
print(dt)
# int32

# 使用端记号
dt = np.dtype(‘>i4‘)
print(dt)
# >i4

# 首先创建结构化数据类型。
dt = np.dtype([(‘age‘,np.int8)])
print(dt)
# [(‘age‘, ‘i1‘)]

# 现在将其应用于 ndarray 对象
dt = np.dtype([(‘age‘,np.int8)])
a = np.array([(10,),(20,),(30,)], dtype = dt)
print(a)
# [(10,) (20,) (30,)]

# 文件名称可用于访问 age 列的内容
dt = np.dtype([(‘age‘,np.int8)])
a = np.array([(10,),(20,),(30,)], dtype = dt)
print(a[‘age‘])
# [10 20 30]

四,Numpy 切片和索引

  ndarray对象的内容可以通过索引或切片来访问和修改,就像python的内置容器对象一样。

  nadarray 对象中的元素遵循基于零的索引,有三种可用的索引方法类型:字段访问,基础切片和高级索引。

  基本切片是Python中基本切片概念到n维的扩展,通过start,stop和step参数提供给内置函数的slice函数来构造一个Python slice对象,此slice对象被传递给数组来提取数组的一部分。

练习:

import numpy as np

a = np.arange(10)
print(a)
# [0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9]
s = slice(2,7,2)
print(s)
# slice(2, 7, 2)
print(a[s])
# [2 4 6]

b = a[2:7:2]
print(b)
# [2 4 6]

# 对单个元素进行切片
b = a[5]
print(b)
# 5

# 对始于索引的元素进行切片
print(a[2:])
# [2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9]

# 对索引之间的元素进行切片
print(a[2:5])
# [2 3 4]


# 二维数组
# 最开始的数组
import numpy as np
a = np.array([[1,2,3],[3,4,5],[4,5,6]])
print(‘我们的数组是:‘)
print(a)
print (‘\n‘)
# 这会返回第二列元素的数组:
print (‘第二列的元素是:‘)
print(a[...,1])
print(‘\n‘)
# 现在我们从第二行切片所有元素:
print (‘第二行的元素是:‘)
print(a[1,...])
print( ‘\n‘)
# 现在我们从第二列向后切片所有元素:
print (‘第二列及其剩余元素是:‘)
print(a[...,1:])
‘‘‘
我们的数组是:
[[1 2 3]
 [3 4 5]
 [4 5 6]]


第二列的元素是:
[2 4 5]


第二行的元素是:
[3 4 5]


第二列及其剩余元素是:
[[2 3]
 [4 5]
 [5 6]]‘‘‘

 

五,Numpy-IO

  ndarray对象可以保存到磁盘文件并从磁盘文件加载,可用的IO功能有:

  •   load()和save() 函数处理Numpy 二进制文件(带npy扩展名)。
  •   loadtxt() 和savetxt() 函数处理正常的文本文件。

  Numpy为ndarray对象引入了一个简单的文件格式,这个npy文件在磁盘文件中,存储重建ndarray所需的数据,图形,dtype和其他信息,以便正确获取数组,即使该文件在具有不同架构的一台机器上。

numpy.save()

  此函数是讲文件输入数组存储在具有npy扩展名的磁盘文件中。

import numpy as np
a = np.array([1,2,3,4,5])
np.save(‘outfile‘,a)

  为了从outfile.npy重建数组,请使用load()函数。

import numpy as np
b = np.load(‘outfile.npy‘)
print(b)
# [1 2 3 4 5]

  save()和load()函数接受一个附加的布尔参数allow_pickles。Python中的pickle用在保存到磁盘文件或者从磁盘文件读取之前,对对象进行序列化和反序列化。

savetxt()

  以简单文本文件格式存储和获取数组数据,通过savetxt()和loadtxt()函数来完成的。

import numpy as np

a = np.array([1,2,3,4,5])
np.savetxt(‘out.txt‘,a)
b = np.loadtxt(‘out.txt‘)
print(b)
# [1. 2. 3. 4. 5.]

   savetxt()和loadtxt()函数接受附加的可选参数,例如页首,页尾和分隔符。

六,numpy中的ndarray与array的区别、不同

  答:Well, np.array is just a convenience function to create an ndarray, it is not a class itself.
(嗯,np.array只是一个便捷的函数,用来创建一个ndarray,它本身不是一个类)

  You can also create an array using np.ndarray, but it is not the recommended way. From the docstring of np.ndarray:
(你也能够用np.ndarray来创建,但这不是推荐的方式。来自np.ndarray的文档:)
