Python in a Nutshell

Name

resize

Synopsis

resize(a,shapetuple)

Returns an array r with shape shapetuple and data copied from a. If r’s size is smaller than a’s size, r .flat is copied from the start of ravel( a ); if r’s size is larger, the data in ravel( a ) is replicated as many times as needed. In particular, resize( s ,( n *len( s ),)) has the sequence replication semantics that s * n would have if s were a generic Python sequence rather than an array. For example:

print Numeric.resize(range(5),(3,4))        
# prints: [[0 1 2 3]
#          [4 0 1 2]
#          [3 4 0 1]]
