transpose

transpose(a, axes=None)

Permute the dimensions of an array.

Parameters:

a : ndarray

Input array.

axes : list of ints, optional

By default, reverse the dimensions, otherwise permute the axes according to the values given.

Returns:

p : ndarray

a with its axes permuted.

Notes

This function differs from the original numpy.transpose in the following way(s):

• only ndarray is accepted as valid input, python iterables are not supported
• the operator always returns an ndarray that does not share the memory with the input

Examples

>>> x = np.arange(4).reshape((2,2))
>>> x
array([[0., 1.],
       [2., 3.]])
>>> np.transpose(x)
array([[0., 2.],
       [1., 3.]])
>>> x = np.ones((1, 2, 3))
>>> np.transpose(x, (1, 0, 2)).shape
(2, 1, 3)
