numpy.matrix.squeeze#

method

matrix.squeeze(axis=None)[source]#

Return a possibly reshaped matrix.

Refer to numpy.squeeze for more documentation.

Parameters
axisNone or int or tuple of ints, optional

Selects a subset of the axes of length one in the shape. If an axis is selected with shape entry greater than one, an error is raised.

Returns
squeezedmatrix

The matrix, but as a (1, N) matrix if it had shape (N, 1).

Notes

If m has a single column then that column is returned as the single row of a matrix. Otherwise m is returned. The returned matrix is always either m itself or a view into m. Supplying an axis keyword argument will not affect the returned matrix but it may cause an error to be raised.

Examples

>>> c = np.matrix([[1], [2]])
>>> c
matrix([[1],
        [2]])
>>> c.squeeze()
matrix([[1, 2]])
>>> r = c.T
>>> r
matrix([[1, 2]])
>>> r.squeeze()
matrix([[1, 2]])
>>> m = np.matrix([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
>>> m.squeeze()
matrix([[1, 2],
        [3, 4]])
