numpy.strings.multiply#
- strings.multiply(a, i)[source]#
Return (a * i), that is string multiple concatenation, element-wise.
Values in
i
of less than 0 are treated as 0 (which yields an empty string).- Parameters:
- aarray_like, with
StringDType
,bytes_
orstr_
dtype - iarray_like, with any integer dtype
- aarray_like, with
- Returns:
- outndarray
Output array of
StringDType
,bytes_
orstr_
dtype, depending on input types
Examples
>>> a = np.array(["a", "b", "c"]) >>> np.strings.multiply(a, 3) array(['aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc'], dtype='<U3') >>> i = np.array([1, 2, 3]) >>> np.strings.multiply(a, i) array(['a', 'bb', 'ccc'], dtype='<U3') >>> np.strings.multiply(np.array(['a']), i) array(['a', 'aa', 'aaa'], dtype='<U3') >>> a = np.array(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']).reshape((2, 3)) >>> np.strings.multiply(a, 3) array([['aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc'], ['ddd', 'eee', 'fff']], dtype='<U3') >>> np.strings.multiply(a, i) array([['a', 'bb', 'ccc'], ['d', 'ee', 'fff']], dtype='<U3')
