numpy.isnan¶

numpy.
isnan
(x, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting='same_kind', order='K', dtype=None, subok=True[, signature, extobj]) = <ufunc 'isnan'>¶ Test element-wise for NaN and return result as a boolean array.
Parameters: x : array_like
Input array.
out : ndarray, None, or tuple of ndarray and None, optional
A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. A tuple (possible only as a keyword argument) must have length equal to the number of outputs.
where : array_like, optional
Values of True indicate to calculate the ufunc at that position, values of False indicate to leave the value in the output alone.
**kwargs
For other keyword-only arguments, see the ufunc docs.
Returns: y : ndarray or bool
For scalar input, the result is a new boolean with value True if the input is NaN; otherwise the value is False.
For array input, the result is a boolean array of the same dimensions as the input and the values are True if the corresponding element of the input is NaN; otherwise the values are False.
Notes
NumPy uses the IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point for Arithmetic (IEEE 754). This means that Not a Number is not equivalent to infinity.
Examples
>>> np.isnan(np.nan) True >>> np.isnan(np.inf) False >>> np.isnan([np.log(-1.),1.,np.log(0)]) array([ True, False, False])
