MaskedArray.tobytes(fill_value=None, order='C')
[source] -
Return the array data as a string containing the raw bytes in the array.
The array is filled with a fill value before the string conversion.
New in version 1.9.0.
Parameters: fill_value : scalar, optional
Value used to fill in the masked values. Deafult is None, in which case
MaskedArray.fill_value
is used.order : {?C?,?F?,?A?}, optional
Order of the data item in the copy. Default is ?C?.
- ?C? ? C order (row major).
- ?F? ? Fortran order (column major).
- ?A? ? Any, current order of array.
- None ? Same as ?A?.
Notes
As for
ndarray.tobytes
, information about the shape, dtype, etc., but also aboutfill_value
, will be lost.Examples
>>> x = np.ma.array(np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]]), mask=[[0, 1], [1, 0]]) >>> x.tobytes() '\x01\x00\x00\x00?B\x0f\x00?B\x0f\x00\x04\x00\x00\x00'
