numpy.empty(shape, dtype = float, order = ‘C’) : Return a new array of given shape and type, with random values.
Parameters :
-> shape : Number of rows -> order : C_contiguous or F_contiguous -> dtype : [optional, float(by Default)] Data type of returned array.
# Python Programming illustrating # numpy.empty method import numpy as geek b = geek.empty( 2 , dtype = int ) print ( "Matrix b : \n" , b) a = geek.empty([ 2 , 2 ], dtype = int ) print ( "\nMatrix a : \n" , a) c = geek.empty([ 3 , 3 ]) print ( "\nMatrix c : \n" , c) |
Output :
Matrix b : [ 0 1079574528] Matrix a : [[0 0] [0 0]] Matrix a : [[ 0. 0. 0.] [ 0. 0. 0.] [ 0. 0. 0.]]
Note : empty, unlike zeros, does not set the array values to zero, and may therefore be marginally faster.
