NumPy: asmatrix() function
asmatrix() function
The asmatrix() function is used to interpret the input as a matrix.
Unlike matrix, asmatrix does not make a copy if the input is already a matrix or an ndarray. Equivalent to matrix(data, copy=False).
Syntax:
numpy.asmatrix(data, dtype=None)

Version: 1.15.0
Parameter:
Name | Description | Required / Optional |
---|---|---|
data | Input data. | Required |
dtype | Data-type of the output matrix. | optional |
Return value:
mat : matrix
data interpreted as a matrix.
Example-1: NumPy.asmatrix() function
>>> import numpy as np
>>> x = np.array([[1,2], [3,4]])
>>> n = np.asmatrix(x)
>>> x[0,0] = 5
>>> n
matrix([[5, 2],
[3, 4]])
