Arrays

Constructors and Types

`Core.AbstractArray`Type

AbstractArray{T, N}

Abstract array supertype which arrays inherit from.

source

`Core.Array`Type

Array{T}(dims)
Array{T,N}(dims)

Construct an uninitialized N-dimensional dense array with element type T, where N is determined from the length or number of dims. dims may be a tuple or a series of integer arguments corresponding to the lengths in each dimension. If the rank N is supplied explicitly as in Array{T,N}(dims), then it must match the length or number of dims.

julia> ndims(A)
2

julia> eltype(A)
Float64

2×2 BitArray{2}:

source

`Base.fill`Function

fill(x, dims)

Create an array filled with the value x. For example, fill(1.0, (5,5)) returns a 5×5 array of floats, with each element initialized to 1.0.

julia> fill(1.0, (5,5))
5×5 Array{Float64,2}:
 1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0
 1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0
 1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0
 1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0
 1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0  1.0

If x is an object reference, all elements will refer to the same object. fill(Foo(), dims) will return an array filled with the result of evaluating Foo() once.

source

`Base.fill!`Function

fill!(A, x)

Fill array A with the value x. If x is an object reference, all elements will refer to the same object. fill!(A, Foo()) will return A filled with the result of evaluating Foo() once.

julia> A = zeros(2,3)
2×3 Array{Float64,2}:

source

`Base.similar`Method

similar(array, [element_type=eltype(array)], [dims=size(array)])

Create an uninitialized mutable array with the given element type and size, based upon the given source array. The second and third arguments are both optional, defaulting to the given array's eltype and size. The dimensions may be specified either as a single tuple argument or as a series of integer arguments.

Custom AbstractArray subtypes may choose which specific array type is best-suited to return for the given element type and dimensionality. If they do not specialize this method, the default is an Array{element_type}(dims...).

For example, similar(1:10, 1, 4) returns an uninitialized Array{Int,2} since ranges are neither mutable nor support 2 dimensions:

julia> similar(1:10, 1, 4)
1×4 Array{Int64,2}:
 4419743872  4374413872  4419743888  0

Conversely, similar(trues(10,10), 2) returns an uninitialized BitVector with two elements since BitArrays are both mutable and can support 1-dimensional arrays:

julia> similar(trues(10,10), 2)
2-element BitArray{1}:
 false
 false

Since BitArrays can only store elements of type Bool, however, if you request a different element type it will create a regular Array instead:

julia> similar(falses(10), Float64, 2, 4)
2×4 Array{Float64,2}:
 2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314
 2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314

source

`Base.similar`Method

similar(storagetype, indices)

Create an uninitialized mutable array analogous to that specified by storagetype, but with indices specified by the last argument. storagetype might be a type or a function.

Examples:

similar(Array{Int}, indices(A))

creates an array that "acts like" an Array{Int} (and might indeed be backed by one), but which is indexed identically to A. If A has conventional indexing, this will be identical to Array{Int}(size(A)), but if A has unconventional indexing then the indices of the result will match A.

similar(BitArray, (indices(A, 2),))

would create a 1-dimensional logical array whose indices match those of the columns of A.

similar(dims->zeros(Int, dims), indices(A))

would create an array of Int, initialized to zero, matching the indices of A.

source

`Base.eye`Function

eye([T::Type=Float64,] m::Integer, n::Integer)

source

eye(m, n)

source

eye([T::Type=Float64,] n::Integer)

n-by-n identity matrix. The default element type is Float64.

source

eye(A)

Constructs an identity matrix of the same dimensions and type as A.

julia> A = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9]
3×3 Array{Int64,2}:
 1  2  3
 4  5  6
 7  8  9

julia> eye(A)
3×3 Array{Int64,2}:
 1  0  0
 0  1  0
 0  0  1

Note the difference from ones.

source

`Base.linspace`Function

linspace(start, stop, n=50)

Construct a range of n linearly spaced elements from start to stop.

julia> linspace(1.3,2.9,9)
1.3:0.2:2.9

source

`Base.logspace`Function

logspace(start::Real, stop::Real, n::Integer=50)

Construct a vector of n logarithmically spaced numbers from 10^start to 10^stop.

julia> logspace(1.,10.,5)

   10.0
 1778.28
    3.16228e5
    5.62341e7
    1.0e10

source

`Base.Random.randsubseq`Function

randsubseq(A, p) -> Vector

Return a vector consisting of a random subsequence of the given array A, where each element of A is included (in order) with independent probability p. (Complexity is linear in p*length(A), so this function is efficient even if p is small and A is large.) Technically, this process is known as "Bernoulli sampling" of A.

source

`Base.Random.randsubseq!`Function

randsubseq!(S, A, p)

Like randsubseq, but the results are stored in S (which is resized as needed).

source

Basic functions

`Base.ndims`Function

ndims(A::AbstractArray) -> Integer

Returns the number of dimensions of A.

julia> A = ones(3,4,5);

julia> ndims(A)
3

source

`Base.size`Function

size(A::AbstractArray, [dim...])

Returns a tuple containing the dimensions of A. Optionally you can specify the dimension(s) you want the length of, and get the length of that dimension, or a tuple of the lengths of dimensions you asked for.

julia> A = ones(2,3,4);

julia> size(A, 2)
3

julia> size(A,3,2)
(4, 3)

source

`Base.indices`Method

indices(A)

Returns the tuple of valid indices for array A.

julia> A = ones(5,6,7);

julia> indices(A)
(Base.OneTo(5), Base.OneTo(6), Base.OneTo(7))

source

`Base.indices`Method

indices(A, d)

Returns the valid range of indices for array A along dimension d.

julia> A = ones(5,6,7);

julia> indices(A,2)
Base.OneTo(6)

source

`Base.length`Method

length(A::AbstractArray) -> Integer

Returns the number of elements in A.

julia> A = ones(3,4,5);

julia> length(A)
60

source

`Base.eachindex`Function

eachindex(A...)

Creates an iterable object for visiting each index of an AbstractArray A in an efficient manner. For array types that have opted into fast linear indexing (like Array), this is simply the range 1:length(A). For other array types, this returns a specialized Cartesian range to efficiently index into the array with indices specified for every dimension. For other iterables, including strings and dictionaries, this returns an iterator object supporting arbitrary index types (e.g. unevenly spaced or non-integer indices).

Example for a sparse 2-d array:

julia> A = sparse([1, 1, 2], [1, 3, 1], [1, 2, -5])
2×3 SparseMatrixCSC{Int64,Int64} with 3 stored entries:
  [1, 1]  =  1
  [2, 1]  =  -5
  [1, 3]  =  2

julia> for iter in eachindex(A)
           @show iter.I[1], iter.I[2]
           @show A[iter]
       end
(iter.I[1], iter.I[2]) = (1, 1)
A[iter] = 1
(iter.I[1], iter.I[2]) = (2, 1)
A[iter] = -5
(iter.I[1], iter.I[2]) = (1, 2)
A[iter] = 0
(iter.I[1], iter.I[2]) = (2, 2)
A[iter] = 0
(iter.I[1], iter.I[2]) = (1, 3)
A[iter] = 2
(iter.I[1], iter.I[2]) = (2, 3)
A[iter] = 0

If you supply more than one AbstractArray argument, eachindex will create an iterable object that is fast for all arguments (a UnitRange if all inputs have fast linear indexing, a CartesianRange otherwise). If the arrays have different sizes and/or dimensionalities, eachindex returns an iterable that spans the largest range along each dimension.

source

`Base.linearindices`Function

linearindices(A)

Returns a UnitRange specifying the valid range of indices for A[i] where i is an Int. For arrays with conventional indexing (indices start at 1), or any multidimensional array, this is 1:length(A); however, for one-dimensional arrays with unconventional indices, this is indices(A, 1).

Calling this function is the "safe" way to write algorithms that exploit linear indexing.

julia> A = ones(5,6,7);

julia> b = linearindices(A);

julia> extrema(b)
(1, 210)

source

`Base.IndexStyle`Type

IndexStyle(A)
IndexStyle(typeof(A))

IndexStyle specifies the "native indexing style" for array A. When you define a new AbstractArray type, you can choose to implement either linear indexing or cartesian indexing. If you decide to implement linear indexing, then you must set this trait for your array type:

Base.IndexStyle(::Type{<:MyArray}) = IndexLinear()

The default is IndexCartesian().

Julia's internal indexing machinery will automatically (and invisibly) convert all indexing operations into the preferred style using sub2ind or ind2sub. This allows users to access elements of your array using any indexing style, even when explicit methods have not been provided.

If you define both styles of indexing for your AbstractArray, this trait can be used to select the most performant indexing style. Some methods check this trait on their inputs, and dispatch to different algorithms depending on the most efficient access pattern. In particular, eachindex creates an iterator whose type depends on the setting of this trait.

source

`Base.countnz`Function

countnz(A) -> Integer

Counts the number of nonzero values in array A (dense or sparse). Note that this is not a constant-time operation. For sparse matrices, one should usually use nnz, which returns the number of stored values.

julia> A = [1 2 4; 0 0 1; 1 1 0]
3×3 Array{Int64,2}:
 1  2  4
 0  0  1
 1  1  0

julia> countnz(A)
6

source

`Base.conj!`Function

conj!(A)

Transform an array to its complex conjugate in-place.

`Base.stride`Function

stride(A, k::Integer)

Returns the distance in memory (in number of elements) between adjacent elements in dimension k.

julia> A = ones(3,4,5);

julia> stride(A,2)
3

julia> stride(A,3)
12

source

`Base.strides`Function

strides(A)

Returns a tuple of the memory strides in each dimension.

julia> A = ones(3,4,5);

julia> strides(A)
(1, 3, 12)

source

`Base.ind2sub`Function

ind2sub(a, index) -> subscripts

Returns a tuple of subscripts into array a corresponding to the linear index index.

julia> A = ones(5,6,7);

julia> ind2sub(A,35)
(5, 1, 2)

julia> ind2sub(A,70)
(5, 2, 3)

source

ind2sub(dims, index) -> subscripts

Returns a tuple of subscripts into an array with dimensions dims, corresponding to the linear index index.

Example:

i, j, ... = ind2sub(size(A), indmax(A))

provides the indices of the maximum element.

julia> ind2sub((3,4),2)
(2, 1)

julia> ind2sub((3,4),3)
(3, 1)

julia> ind2sub((3,4),4)
(1, 2)

source

`Base.sub2ind`Function

sub2ind(dims, i, j, k...) -> index

The inverse of ind2sub, returns the linear index corresponding to the provided subscripts.

julia> sub2ind((5,6,7),1,2,3)
66

julia> sub2ind((5,6,7),1,6,3)
86

source

`Base.LinAlg.checksquare`Function

LinAlg.checksquare(A)

Check that a matrix is square, then return its common dimension. For multiple arguments, return a vector.

Example

julia> A = ones(4,4); B = zeros(5,5);

julia> LinAlg.checksquare(A, B)
2-element Array{Int64,1}:
 4
 5

source

Broadcast and vectorization

See also the dot syntax for vectorizing functions; for example, f.(args...) implicitly calls broadcast(f, args...). Rather than relying on "vectorized" methods of functions like sin to operate on arrays, you should use sin.(a) to vectorize via broadcast.

`Base.broadcast`Function

broadcast(f, As...)

Broadcasts the arrays, tuples, Refs, nullables, and/or scalars As to a container of the appropriate type and dimensions. In this context, anything that is not a subtype of AbstractArray, Ref (except for Ptrs), Tuple, or Nullable is considered a scalar. The resulting container is established by the following rules:

If all the arguments are scalars, it returns a scalar.
If the arguments are tuples and zero or more scalars, it returns a tuple.
If the arguments contain at least one array or Ref, it returns an array (expanding singleton dimensions), and treats Refs as 0-dimensional arrays, and tuples as 1-dimensional arrays.

The following additional rule applies to Nullable arguments: If there is at least one Nullable, and all the arguments are scalars or Nullable, it returns a Nullable treating Nullables as "containers".

A special syntax exists for broadcasting: f.(args...) is equivalent to broadcast(f, args...), and nested f.(g.(args...)) calls are fused into a single broadcast loop.

source

`Base.broadcast!`Function

broadcast!(f, dest, As...)

Like broadcast, but store the result of broadcast(f, As...) in the dest array. Note that dest is only used to store the result, and does not supply arguments to f unless it is also listed in the As, as in broadcast!(f, A, A, B) to perform A[:] = broadcast(f, A, B).

source

`Base.Broadcast.@dot`Macro

@. expr

Convert every function call or operator in expr into a "dot call" (e.g. convert f(x) to f.(x)), and convert every assignment in expr to a "dot assignment" (e.g. convert += to .+=).

If you want to avoid adding dots for selected function calls in expr, splice those function calls in with $. For example, @. sqrt(abs($sort(x))) is equivalent to sqrt.(abs.(sort(x))) (no dot for sort).

(@. is equivalent to a call to @__dot__.)

source

`Base.Broadcast.broadcast_getindex`Function

broadcast_getindex(A, inds...)

Broadcasts the inds arrays to a common size like broadcast and returns an array of the results A[ks...], where ks goes over the positions in the broadcast result A.

Indexing and assignment

`Base.getindex`Method

getindex(A, inds...)

Returns a subset of array A as specified by inds, where each ind may be an Int, a Range, or a Vector. See the manual section on array indexing for details.

`Base.setindex!`Method

setindex!(A, X, inds...)

Store values from array X within some subset of A as specified by inds.

source

`Base.copy!`Method

copy!(dest, Rdest::CartesianRange, src, Rsrc::CartesianRange) -> dest

Copy the block of src in the range of Rsrc to the block of dest in the range of Rdest. The sizes of the two regions must match.

source

`Base.isassigned`Function

isassigned(array, i) -> Bool

Tests whether the given array has a value associated with index i. Returns false if the index is out of bounds, or has an undefined reference.

`Base.Colon`Type

Colon()

Colons (:) are used to signify indexing entire objects or dimensions at once.

Very few operations are defined on Colons directly; instead they are converted by to_indices to an internal vector type (Base.Slice) to represent the collection of indices they span before being used.

source

`Base.IteratorsMD.CartesianIndex`Type

CartesianIndex(i, j, k...)   -> I
CartesianIndex((i, j, k...)) -> I

Create a multidimensional index I, which can be used for indexing a multidimensional array A. In particular, A[I] is equivalent to A[i,j,k...]. One can freely mix integer and CartesianIndex indices; for example, A[Ipre, i, Ipost] (where Ipre and Ipost are CartesianIndex indices and i is an Int) can be a useful expression when writing algorithms that work along a single dimension of an array of arbitrary dimensionality.

A CartesianIndex is sometimes produced by eachindex, and always when iterating with an explicit CartesianRange.

source

`Base.IteratorsMD.CartesianRange`Type

CartesianRange(Istart::CartesianIndex, Istop::CartesianIndex) -> R
CartesianRange(sz::Dims) -> R
CartesianRange(istart:istop, jstart:jstop, ...) -> R

Define a region R spanning a multidimensional rectangular range of integer indices. These are most commonly encountered in the context of iteration, where for I in R ... end will return CartesianIndex indices I equivalent to the nested loops

for j = jstart:jstop
    for i = istart:istop
        ...
    end
end

Consequently these can be useful for writing algorithms that work in arbitrary dimensions.

source

`Base.to_indices`Function

to_indices(A, I::Tuple)

Convert the tuple I to a tuple of indices for use in indexing into array A.

The returned tuple must only contain either Ints or AbstractArrays of scalar indices that are supported by array A. It will error upon encountering a novel index type that it does not know how to process.

For simple index types, it defers to the unexported Base.to_index(A, i) to process each index i. While this internal function is not intended to be called directly, Base.to_index may be extended by custom array or index types to provide custom indexing behaviors.

More complicated index types may require more context about the dimension into which they index. To support those cases, to_indices(A, I) calls to_indices(A, indices(A), I), which then recursively walks through both the given tuple of indices and the dimensional indices of A in tandem. As such, not all index types are guaranteed to propagate to Base.to_index.

`Base.checkbounds`Function

checkbounds(Bool, A, I...)

Return true if the specified indices I are in bounds for the given array A. Subtypes of AbstractArray should specialize this method if they need to provide custom bounds checking behaviors; however, in many cases one can rely on A's indices and checkindex.

`Base.checkindex`Function

checkindex(Bool, inds::AbstractUnitRange, index)

Return true if the given index is within the bounds of inds. Custom types that would like to behave as indices for all arrays can extend this method in order to provide a specialized bounds checking implementation.

julia> checkindex(Bool,1:20,8)
true

julia> checkindex(Bool,1:20,21)
false

Views (SubArrays and other view types)

`Base.view`Function

view(A, inds...)

Like getindex, but returns a view into the parent array A with the given indices instead of making a copy. Calling getindex or setindex! on the returned SubArray computes the indices to the parent array on the fly without checking bounds.

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4]
2×2 Array{Int64,2}:
 1  2

`Base.@view`Macro

@view A[inds...]

Creates a SubArray from an indexing expression. This can only be applied directly to a reference expression (e.g. @view A[1,2:end]), and should not be used as the target of an assignment (e.g. @view(A[1,2:end]) = ...). See also @views to switch an entire block of code to use views for slicing.

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4]
2×2 Array{Int64,2}:

source

`Base.@views`Macro

@views expression

Convert every array-slicing operation in the given expression (which may be a begin/end block, loop, function, etc.) to return a view. Scalar indices, non-array types, and explicit getindex calls (as opposed to array[...]) are unaffected.

Note that the @views macro only affects array[...] expressions that appear explicitly in the given expression, not array slicing that occurs in functions called by that code.

source

`Base.parent`Function

parent(A)

Returns the "parent array" of an array view type (e.g., SubArray), or the array itself if it is not a view.

`Base.reinterpret`Function

reinterpret(type, A)

Change the type-interpretation of a block of memory. For arrays, this constructs an array with the same binary data as the given array, but with the specified element type. For example, reinterpret(Float32, UInt32(7)) interprets the 4 bytes corresponding to UInt32(7) as a Float32.

julia> reinterpret(Float32, UInt32(7))
1.0f-44

julia> reinterpret(Float32, UInt32[1 2 3 4 5])

`Base.reshape`Function

reshape(A, dims...) -> R
reshape(A, dims) -> R

Return an array R with the same data as A, but with different dimension sizes or number of dimensions. The two arrays share the same underlying data, so that setting elements of R alters the values of A and vice versa.

The new dimensions may be specified either as a list of arguments or as a shape tuple. At most one dimension may be specified with a :, in which case its length is computed such that its product with all the specified dimensions is equal to the length of the original array A. The total number of elements must not change.

`Base.vec`Function

vec(a::AbstractArray) -> Vector

Reshape the array a as a one-dimensional column vector. The resulting array shares the same underlying data as a, so modifying one will also modify the other.

julia> a = [1 2 3; 4 5 6]
2×3 Array{Int64,2}:

Concatenation and permutation

`Base.cat`Function

cat(dims, A...)

Concatenate the input arrays along the specified dimensions in the iterable dims. For dimensions not in dims, all input arrays should have the same size, which will also be the size of the output array along that dimension. For dimensions in dims, the size of the output array is the sum of the sizes of the input arrays along that dimension. If dims is a single number, the different arrays are tightly stacked along that dimension. If dims is an iterable containing several dimensions, this allows one to construct block diagonal matrices and their higher-dimensional analogues by simultaneously increasing several dimensions for every new input array and putting zero blocks elsewhere. For example, cat([1,2], matrices...) builds a block diagonal matrix, i.e. a block matrix with matrices[1], matrices[2], ... as diagonal blocks and matching zero blocks away from the diagonal.

`Base.permutedims`Function

permutedims(A, perm)

Permute the dimensions of array A. perm is a vector specifying a permutation of length ndims(A). This is a generalization of transpose for multi-dimensional arrays. Transpose is equivalent to permutedims(A, [2,1]).

    q::AbstractVector{<:Integer})

Bilaterally permute A, returning PAQ (A[p,q]). Column-permutation q's length must match A's column count (length(q) == A.n). Row-permutation p's length must match A's row count (length(p) == A.m).

For expert drivers and additional information, see permute!.

`Base.permute!`Method

permute!{Tv,Ti}(X::SparseMatrixCSC{Tv,Ti}, A::SparseMatrixCSC{Tv,Ti},
    p::AbstractVector{<:Integer}, q::AbstractVector{<:Integer}[, C::SparseMatrixCSC{Tv,Ti}])

Bilaterally permute A, storing result PAQ (A[p,q]) in X. Stores intermediate result (AQ)^T (transpose(A[:,q])) in optional argument C if present. Requires that none of X, A, and, if present, C alias each other; to store result PAQ back into A, use the following method lacking X:

permute!{Tv,Ti}(A::SparseMatrixCSC{Tv,Ti}, p::AbstractVector{<:Integer},
    q::AbstractVector{<:Integer}[, C::SparseMatrixCSC{Tv,Ti}[, workcolptr::Vector{Ti}]])

X's dimensions must match those of A (X.m == A.m and X.n == A.n), and X must have enough storage to accommodate all allocated entries in A (length(X.rowval) >= nnz(A) and length(X.nzval) >= nnz(A)). Column-permutation q's length must match A's column count (length(q) == A.n). Row-permutation p's length must match A's row count (length(p) == A.m).

C's dimensions must match those of transpose(A) (C.m == A.n and C.n == A.m), and C must have enough storage to accommodate all allocated entries in A (length(C.rowval) >= nnz(A) and length(C.nzval) >= nnz(A)).

For additional (algorithmic) information, and for versions of these methods that forgo argument checking, see (unexported) parent methods unchecked_noalias_permute! and unchecked_aliasing_permute!.
