dask.array.hstack

dask.array.hstack

dask.array.hstack(tup, allow_unknown_chunksizes=False)[source]

Stack arrays in sequence horizontally (column wise).

This docstring was copied from numpy.hstack.

Some inconsistencies with the Dask version may exist.

This is equivalent to concatenation along the second axis, except for 1-D arrays where it concatenates along the first axis. Rebuilds arrays divided by hsplit.

This function makes most sense for arrays with up to 3 dimensions. For instance, for pixel-data with a height (first axis), width (second axis), and r/g/b channels (third axis). The functions concatenate, stack and block provide more general stacking and concatenation operations.

Parameters
tupsequence of ndarrays

The arrays must have the same shape along all but the second axis, except 1-D arrays which can be any length.

dtypestr or dtype (Not supported in Dask)

If provided, the destination array will have this dtype. Cannot be provided together with out.

New in version 1.24.

casting{‘no’, ‘equiv’, ‘safe’, ‘same_kind’, ‘unsafe’}, optional (Not supported in Dask)

Controls what kind of data casting may occur. Defaults to ‘same_kind’.

New in version 1.24.

Returns
stackedndarray

The array formed by stacking the given arrays.

block

Assemble an nd-array from nested lists of blocks.

vstack

Stack arrays in sequence vertically (row wise).

dstack

Stack arrays in sequence depth wise (along third axis).

column_stack

Stack 1-D arrays as columns into a 2-D array.

hsplit

Split an array into multiple sub-arrays horizontally (column-wise).

unstack

Split an array into a tuple of sub-arrays along an axis.

Examples

>>> import numpy as np  
>>> a = np.array((1,2,3))  
>>> b = np.array((4,5,6))  
>>> np.hstack((a,b))  
array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6])
>>> a = np.array([[1],[2],[3]])  
>>> b = np.array([[4],[5],[6]])  
>>> np.hstack((a,b))  
array([[1, 4],
       [2, 5],
       [3, 6]])
