numpy.ndindex

class numpy.ndindex(*shape)[source]

An N-dimensional iterator object to index arrays.

Given the shape of an array, an ndindex instance iterates over the N-dimensional index of the array. At each iteration a tuple of indices is returned, the last dimension is iterated over first.

Parameters
shapeints, or a single tuple of ints

The size of each dimension of the array can be passed as individual parameters or as the elements of a tuple.

Examples

Dimensions as individual arguments

>>> for index in np.ndindex(3, 2, 1):
...     print(index)
(0, 0, 0)
(0, 1, 0)
(1, 0, 0)
(1, 1, 0)
(2, 0, 0)
(2, 1, 0)

Same dimensions - but in a tuple (3, 2, 1)

>>> for index in np.ndindex((3, 2, 1)):
...     print(index)
(0, 0, 0)
(0, 1, 0)
(1, 0, 0)
(1, 1, 0)
(2, 0, 0)
(2, 1, 0)

Methods

ndincr()

Increment the multi-dimensional index by one.
