numpy.hstack

numpy.hstack(tup)

Stack arrays in sequence horizontally (column wise).

This is equivalent to concatenation along the second axis, except for 1-D arrays where it concatenates along the first axis. Rebuilds arrays divided by hsplit.

This function makes most sense for arrays with up to 3 dimensions. For instance, for pixel-data with a height (first axis), width (second axis), and r/g/b channels (third axis). The functions concatenate, stack and block provide more general stacking and concatenation operations.

Parameters

tupsequence of ndarrays

The arrays must have the same shape along all but the second axis, except 1-D arrays which can be any length.

Returns

stackedndarray

The array formed by stacking the given arrays.

See also

stack

Join a sequence of arrays along a new axis.

vstack

Stack arrays in sequence vertically (row wise).

dstack

Stack arrays in sequence depth wise (along third axis).

concatenate

Join a sequence of arrays along an existing axis.

hsplit

Split array along second axis.

block

Assemble arrays from blocks.

Examples

>>> a = np.array((1,2,3))
>>> b = np.array((2,3,4))
>>> np.hstack((a,b))
array([1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 4])
>>> a = np.array([[1],[2],[3]])
>>> b = np.array([[2],[3],[4]])
>>> np.hstack((a,b))
array([[1, 2],
       [2, 3],
       [3, 4]])
