numpy.ma.stack

ma.stack(*args, **kwargs) = <numpy.ma.extras._fromnxfunction_seq object>

Join a sequence of arrays along a new axis.

The axis parameter specifies the index of the new axis in the dimensions of the result. For example, if axis=0 it will be the first dimension and if axis=-1 it will be the last dimension.

New in version 1.10.0.

Parameters

arrayssequence of array_like

Each array must have the same shape.

axisint, optional

The axis in the result array along which the input arrays are stacked.

outndarray, optional

If provided, the destination to place the result. The shape must be correct, matching that of what stack would have returned if no out argument were specified.

Returns

stackedndarray

The stacked array has one more dimension than the input arrays.

See also

concatenate

Join a sequence of arrays along an existing axis.

block

Assemble an nd-array from nested lists of blocks.

split

Split array into a list of multiple sub-arrays of equal size.

Notes

The function is applied to both the _data and the _mask, if any.

Examples

>>> arrays = [np.random.randn(3, 4) for _ in range(10)]
>>> np.stack(arrays, axis=0).shape
(10, 3, 4)

>>> np.stack(arrays, axis=1).shape
(3, 10, 4)

>>> np.stack(arrays, axis=2).shape
(3, 4, 10)

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

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