@stdlib/ndarray-base-slice v0.2.1

slice

Return a view of an input ndarray.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/ndarray-base-slice

Usage

var slice = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-base-slice' );

slice( x, slice, strict, writable )

Returns a view of an input ndarray.

var Slice = require( '@stdlib/slice-ctor' );
var MultiSlice = require( '@stdlib/slice-multi' );
var ndarray = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-ctor' );
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-to-array' );

var buffer = [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ];
var shape = [ 3, 2 ];
var strides = [ 2, 1 ];
var offset = 0;

var x = ndarray( 'generic', buffer, shape, strides, offset, 'row-major' );
// returns <ndarray>

var sh = x.shape;
// returns [ 3, 2 ]

var arr = ndarray2array( x );
// returns [ [ 1.0, 2.0 ], [ 3.0, 4.0 ], [ 5.0, 6.0 ] ]

var s0 = new Slice( null, null, -2 );
var s1 = new Slice( null, null, -1 );
var s = new MultiSlice( s0, s1 );
// returns <MultiSlice>

var y = slice( x, s, false, false );
// returns <ndarray>

sh = y.shape;
// returns [ 2, 2 ]

arr = ndarray2array( y );
// returns [ [ 6.0, 5.0 ], [ 2.0, 1.0 ] ]

The function accepts the following arguments:

• x: input ndarray.
• slice: a MultiSlice instance.
• strict: boolean indicating whether to enforce strict bounds checking.
• writable: boolean indicating whether a returned ndarray should be writable.

Notes

• The writable parameter only applies to ndarray constructors supporting read-only instances.

Examples

var S = require( '@stdlib/slice-ctor' );
var E = require( '@stdlib/slice-multi' );
var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-array' );
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-to-array' );
var zeroTo = require( '@stdlib/array-base-zero-to' );
var slice = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-base-slice' );

// Alias `null` to allow for more compact indexing expressions:
var _ = null;

// Create a linear ndarray buffer:
var buf = zeroTo( 27 );

// Create an ndarray:
var x = array( buf, {
    'shape': [ 3, 3, 3 ]
});

// Get each matrix...
var s1 = E( 0, _, _ );
var y1 = slice( x, s1, false, false );
// returns <ndarray>

var a1 = ndarray2array( y1 );
// returns [ [ 0, 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4, 5 ], [ 6, 7, 8 ] ]

var s2 = E( 1, _, _ );
var y2 = slice( x, s2, false, false );
// returns <ndarray>

var a2 = ndarray2array( y2 );
// returns [ [ 9, 10, 11 ], [ 12, 13, 14 ], [ 15, 16, 17 ] ]

var s3 = E( 2, _, _ );
var y3 = slice( x, s3, false, false );
// returns <ndarray>

var a3 = ndarray2array( y3 );
// returns [ [ 18, 19, 20 ], [ 21, 22, 23 ], [ 24, 25, 26 ] ]

// Reverse all elements:
var s = S( _, _, -1 );
var s4 = E( s, s, s );
var y4 = slice( x, s4, false, false );
// returns <ndarray>

var a4 = ndarray2array( y4 );
// returns [...]

// Get the second rows from each matrix:
var s5 = E( _, 1, _ );
var y5 = slice( x, s5, false, false );
// returns <ndarray>

var a5 = ndarray2array( y5 );
// returns [ [ 3, 4, 5 ], [ 12, 13, 14 ], [ 21, 22, 23 ] ]

// Get the second columns from each matrix:
var s6 = E( _, _, 1 );
var y6 = slice( x, s6, false, false );
// returns <ndarray>

var a6 = ndarray2array( y6 );
// returns [ [ 1, 4, 7 ], [ 10, 13, 16 ], [ 19, 22, 25 ] ]
