numpy.shares_memory
-
numpy.shares_memory(a, b, max_work=None)
Determine if two arrays share memory
| Parameters: | a, b : ndarray
max_work : int, optional
Effort to spend on solving the overlap problem (maximum number
of candidate solutions to consider). The following special
values are recognized:
- max_work=MAY_SHARE_EXACT (default)
The problem is solved exactly. In this case, the function returns
True only if there is an element shared between the arrays.
- max_work=MAY_SHARE_BOUNDS
Only the memory bounds of a and b are checked.
