Arrays

Constructors and Types

Core.ArrayType
Array{T,N} <: AbstractArray{T,N}

N-dimensional dense array with elements of type T.

source
Core.ArrayMethod
Array{T}(undef, dims)
Array{T,N}(undef, dims)

Construct an uninitialized N-dimensional Array containing elements of type T. N can either be supplied explicitly, as in Array{T,N}(undef, dims), or be determined by the length or number of dims. dims may be a tuple or a series of integer arguments corresponding to the lengths in each dimension. If the rank N is supplied explicitly, then it must match the length or number of dims. Here undef is the UndefInitializer.

Examples

julia> A = Array{Float64, 2}(undef, 2, 3) # N given explicitly
2×3 Matrix{Float64}:
 6.90198e-310  6.90198e-310  6.90198e-310
 6.90198e-310  6.90198e-310  0.0

julia> B = Array{Float64}(undef, 4) # N determined by the input
4-element Vector{Float64}:

true

julia> Array{Float64, 3} <: VecOrMat{Float64}
false
source
Core.DenseArrayType
DenseArray{T, N} <: AbstractArray{T,N}

N-dimensional dense array with elements of type T. The elements of a dense array are stored contiguously in memory.

source
Base.StridedArrayConstant
StridedArray{T, N}

A hard-coded Union of common array types that follow the strided array interface, with elements of type T and N dimensions.

If A is a StridedArray, then its elements are stored in memory with offsets, which may vary between dimensions but are constant within a dimension. For example, A could have stride 2 in dimension 1, and stride 3 in dimension 2. Incrementing A along dimension d jumps in memory by [strides(A, d)] slots. Strided arrays are particularly important and useful because they can sometimes be passed directly as pointers to foreign language libraries like BLAS.

source
Base.getindexMethod
getindex(type[, elements...])

Construct a 1-d array of the specified type. This is usually called with the syntax Type[]. Element values can be specified using Type[a,b,c,...].

Examples

julia> Int8[1, 2, 3]
3-element Vector{Int8}:
 1
 2
 3

julia> getindex(Int8, 1, 2, 3)
3-element Vector{Int8}:
 1
 2
 3
source
Base.zerosFunction
zeros([T=Float64,] dims::Tuple)
zeros([T=Float64,] dims...)

Create an Array, with element type T, of all zeros with size specified by dims. See also fill, ones, zero.

Examples

julia> zeros(1)
1-element Vector{Float64}:
 0.0

julia> zeros(Int8, 2, 3)
2×3 Matrix{Int8}:
 0  0  0
 0  0  0
source
Base.onesFunction
ones([T=Float64,] dims::Tuple)
ones([T=Float64,] dims...)

Create an Array, with element type T, of all ones with size specified by dims. See also: fill, zeros.

Examples

julia> ones(1,2)
1×2 Matrix{Float64}:
 1.0  1.0

julia> ones(ComplexF64, 2, 3)
2×3 Matrix{ComplexF64}:
 1.0+0.0im  1.0+0.0im  1.0+0.0im
 1.0+0.0im  1.0+0.0im  1.0+0.0im
source
Base.BitArrayType
BitArray{N} <: AbstractArray{Bool, N}

Space-efficient N-dimensional boolean array, using just one bit for each boolean value.

BitArrays pack up to 64 values into every 8 bytes, resulting in an 8x space efficiency over Array{Bool, N} and allowing some operations to work on 64 values at once.

By default, Julia returns BitArrays from broadcasting operations that generate boolean elements (including dotted-comparisons like .==) as well as from the functions trues and falses.

Note

Due to its packed storage format, concurrent access to the elements of a BitArray where at least one of them is a write is not thread safe.

source
Base.BitArrayMethod
BitArray(undef, dims::Integer...)
BitArray{N}(undef, dims::NTuple{N,Int})

Construct an undef BitArray with the given dimensions. Behaves identically to the Array constructor. See undef.

Examples

julia> BitArray(undef, 2, 2)
2×2 BitMatrix:
 0  0
 0  0

julia> BitArray(undef, (3, 1))
3×1 BitMatrix:
 0
 0
 0
source
Base.BitArrayMethod
BitArray(itr)

Construct a BitArray generated by the given iterable object. The shape is inferred from the itr object.

Examples

julia> BitArray([1 0; 0 1])
2×2 BitMatrix:
 1  0
 0  1

julia> BitArray(x+y == 3 for x = 1:2, y = 1:3)
2×3 BitMatrix:
 0  1  0
 1  0  0

julia> BitArray(x+y == 3 for x = 1:2 for y = 1:3)
6-element BitVector:

source
Base.truesFunction
trues(dims)

Create a BitArray with all values set to true.

Examples

julia> trues(2,3)
2×3 BitMatrix:
 1  1  1
 1  1  1
source
Base.falsesFunction
falses(dims)

Create a BitArray with all values set to false.

Examples

julia> falses(2,3)
2×3 BitMatrix:
 0  0  0
 0  0  0
source
Base.fillFunction
fill(x, dims::Tuple)
fill(x, dims...)

Create an array filled with the value x. For example, fill(1.0, (5,5)) returns a 5×5 array of floats, with each element initialized to 1.0.

dims may be specified as either a tuple or a sequence of arguments. For example, the common idiom fill(x) creates a zero-dimensional array containing the single value x.

See also: fill!, zeros, ones, similar.

Examples

julia> fill(1.0, (2,3))
2×3 Matrix{Float64}:
 1.0  1.0  1.0
 1.0  1.0  1.0

julia> fill(42)
0-dimensional Array{Int64, 0}:
42

If x is an object reference, all elements will refer to the same object:

julia> A = fill(zeros(2), 2);

julia> A[1][1] = 42; # modifies both A[1][1] and A[2][1]

julia> A
2-element Vector{Vector{Float64}}:
 [42.0, 0.0]
 [42.0, 0.0]
source
Base.fill!Function
fill!(A, x)

Fill array A with the value x. If x is an object reference, all elements will refer to the same object. fill!(A, Foo()) will return A filled with the result of evaluating Foo() once.

Examples

julia> A = zeros(2,3)
2×3 Matrix{Float64}:
 0.0  0.0  0.0
 0.0  0.0  0.0

julia> fill!(A, 2.)
2×3 Matrix{Float64}:
 2.0  2.0  2.0
 2.0  2.0  2.0

julia> a = [1, 1, 1]; A = fill!(Vector{Vector{Int}}(undef, 3), a); a[1] = 2; A
3-element Vector{Vector{Int64}}:
 [2, 1, 1]
 [2, 1, 1]
 [2, 1, 1]

julia> x = 0; f() = (global x += 1; x); fill!(Vector{Int}(undef, 3), f())
3-element Vector{Int64}:
 1
 1
 1
source
Base.similarFunction
similar(array, [element_type=eltype(array)], [dims=size(array)])

Create an uninitialized mutable array with the given element type and size, based upon the given source array. The second and third arguments are both optional, defaulting to the given array's eltype and size. The dimensions may be specified either as a single tuple argument or as a series of integer arguments.

Custom AbstractArray subtypes may choose which specific array type is best-suited to return for the given element type and dimensionality. If they do not specialize this method, the default is an Array{element_type}(undef, dims...).

For example, similar(1:10, 1, 4) returns an uninitialized Array{Int,2} since ranges are neither mutable nor support 2 dimensions:

julia> similar(1:10, 1, 4)
1×4 Array{Int64,2}:
 4419743872  4374413872  4419743888  0

Conversely, similar(trues(10,10), 2) returns an uninitialized BitVector with two elements since BitArrays are both mutable and can support 1-dimensional arrays:

julia> similar(trues(10,10), 2)
2-element BitVector:
 0
 0

Since BitArrays can only store elements of type Bool, however, if you request a different element type it will create a regular Array instead:

julia> similar(falses(10), Float64, 2, 4)
2×4 Array{Float64,2}:
 2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314
 2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314  2.18425e-314

See also: undef, isassigned.

source
similar(storagetype, axes)

Create an uninitialized mutable array analogous to that specified by storagetype, but with axes specified by the last argument.

Examples:

similar(Array{Int}, axes(A))

creates an array that "acts like" an Array{Int} (and might indeed be backed by one), but which is indexed identically to A. If A has conventional indexing, this will be identical to Array{Int}(undef, size(A)), but if A has unconventional indexing then the indices of the result will match A.

similar(BitArray, (axes(A, 2),))

would create a 1-dimensional logical array whose indices match those of the columns of A.

source

Basic functions

Base.ndimsFunction
ndims(A::AbstractArray) -> Integer

Return the number of dimensions of A.

See also: size, axes.

Examples

julia> A = fill(1, (3,4,5));

julia> ndims(A)
3
source
Base.sizeFunction
size(A::AbstractArray, [dim])

Return a tuple containing the dimensions of A. Optionally you can specify a dimension to just get the length of that dimension.

Note that size may not be defined for arrays with non-standard indices, in which case axes may be useful. See the manual chapter on arrays with custom indices.

See also: length, ndims, eachindex, sizeof.

Examples

julia> A = fill(1, (2,3,4));

julia> size(A)
(2, 3, 4)

julia> size(A, 2)
3
source
Base.axesMethod
axes(A)

Return the tuple of valid indices for array A.

See also: size, keys, eachindex.

Examples

julia> A = fill(1, (5,6,7));

julia> axes(A)
(Base.OneTo(5), Base.OneTo(6), Base.OneTo(7))
source
Base.axesMethod
axes(A, d)

Return the valid range of indices for array A along dimension d.

See also size, and the manual chapter on arrays with custom indices.

Examples

julia> A = fill(1, (5,6,7));

julia> axes(A, 2)
Base.OneTo(6)

Usage note

Each of the indices has to be an AbstractUnitRange{<:Integer}, but at the same time can be a type that uses custom indices. So, for example, if you need a subset, use generalized indexing constructs like begin/end or firstindex/lastindex:

ix = axes(v, 1)
ix[2:end]          # will work for eg Vector, but may fail in general
ix[(begin+1):end]  # works for generalized indexes
source
Base.lengthMethod
length(A::AbstractArray)

Return the number of elements in the array, defaults to prod(size(A)).

Examples

julia> length([1, 2, 3, 4])
4

julia> length([1 2; 3 4])
4
source
Base.eachindexFunction
eachindex(A...)

Create an iterable object for visiting each index of an AbstractArray A in an efficient manner. For array types that have opted into fast linear indexing (like Array), this is simply the range 1:length(A). For other array types, return a specialized Cartesian range to efficiently index into the array with indices specified for every dimension. For other iterables, including strings and dictionaries, return an iterator object supporting arbitrary index types (e.g. unevenly spaced or non-integer indices).

If you supply more than one AbstractArray argument, eachindex will create an iterable object that is fast for all arguments (a UnitRange if all inputs have fast linear indexing, a CartesianIndices otherwise). If the arrays have different sizes and/or dimensionalities, a DimensionMismatch exception will be thrown.

Examples

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4];

julia> for i in eachindex(A) # linear indexing
           println(i)
       end
1
2
3
4

julia> for i in eachindex(view(A, 1:2, 1:1)) # Cartesian indexing
           println(i)
       end
CartesianIndex(1, 1)
CartesianIndex(2, 1)
source
Base.IndexStyleType
IndexStyle(A)
IndexStyle(typeof(A))

IndexStyle specifies the "native indexing style" for array A. When you define a new AbstractArray type, you can choose to implement either linear indexing (with IndexLinear) or cartesian indexing. If you decide to only implement linear indexing, then you must set this trait for your array type:

Base.IndexStyle(::Type{<:MyArray}) = IndexLinear()

The default is IndexCartesian().

Julia's internal indexing machinery will automatically (and invisibly) recompute all indexing operations into the preferred style. This allows users to access elements of your array using any indexing style, even when explicit methods have not been provided.

If you define both styles of indexing for your AbstractArray, this trait can be used to select the most performant indexing style. Some methods check this trait on their inputs, and dispatch to different algorithms depending on the most efficient access pattern. In particular, eachindex creates an iterator whose type depends on the setting of this trait.

source
Base.IndexLinearType
IndexLinear()

Subtype of IndexStyle used to describe arrays which are optimally indexed by one linear index.

A linear indexing style uses one integer index to describe the position in the array (even if it's a multidimensional array) and column-major ordering is used to efficiently access the elements. This means that requesting eachindex from an array that is IndexLinear will return a simple one-dimensional range, even if it is multidimensional.

A custom array that reports its IndexStyle as IndexLinear only needs to implement indexing (and indexed assignment) with a single Int index; all other indexing expressions — including multidimensional accesses — will be recomputed to the linear index. For example, if A were a 2×3 custom matrix with linear indexing, and we referenced A[1, 3], this would be recomputed to the equivalent linear index and call A[5] since 2*1 + 3 = 5.

See also IndexCartesian.

source
Base.IndexCartesianType
IndexCartesian()

Subtype of IndexStyle used to describe arrays which are optimally indexed by a Cartesian index. This is the default for new custom AbstractArray subtypes.

A Cartesian indexing style uses multiple integer indices to describe the position in a multidimensional array, with exactly one index per dimension. This means that requesting eachindex from an array that is IndexCartesian will return a range of CartesianIndices.

A N-dimensional custom array that reports its IndexStyle as IndexCartesian needs to implement indexing (and indexed assignment) with exactly N Int indices; all other indexing expressions — including linear indexing — will be recomputed to the equivalent Cartesian location. For example, if A were a 2×3 custom matrix with cartesian indexing, and we referenced A[5], this would be recomputed to the equivalent Cartesian index and call A[1, 3] since 5 = 2*1 + 3.

It is significantly more expensive to compute Cartesian indices from a linear index than it is to go the other way. The former operation requires division — a very costly operation — whereas the latter only uses multiplication and addition and is essentially free. This asymmetry means it is far more costly to use linear indexing with an IndexCartesian array than it is to use Cartesian indexing with an IndexLinear array.

See also IndexLinear.

Base.conj!Function
conj!(A)

Transform an array to its complex conjugate in-place.

Broadcast and vectorization

See also the dot syntax for vectorizing functions; for example, f.(args...) implicitly calls broadcast(f, args...). Rather than relying on "vectorized" methods of functions like sin to operate on arrays, you should use sin.(a) to vectorize via broadcast.

Base.Broadcast.broadcastFunction
broadcast(f, As...)

Broadcast the function f over the arrays, tuples, collections, Refs and/or scalars As.

Broadcasting applies the function f over the elements of the container arguments and the scalars themselves in As. Singleton and missing dimensions are expanded to match the extents of the other arguments by virtually repeating the value. By default, only a limited number of types are considered scalars, including Numbers, Strings, Symbols, Types, Functions and some common singletons like missing and nothing. All other arguments are iterated over or indexed into elementwise.

The resulting container type is established by the following rules:

  • If all the arguments are scalars or zero-dimensional arrays, it returns an unwrapped scalar.
  • If at least one argument is a tuple and all others are scalars or zero-dimensional arrays, it returns a tuple.
  • All other combinations of arguments default to returning an Array, but custom container types can define their own implementation and promotion-like rules to customize the result when they appear as arguments.

A special syntax exists for broadcasting: f.(args...) is equivalent to broadcast(f, args...), and nested f.(g.(args...)) calls are fused into a single broadcast loop.

julia> A = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
5-element Vector{Int64}:

Base.Broadcast.broadcast!Function
broadcast!(f, dest, As...)

Like broadcast, but store the result of broadcast(f, As...) in the dest array. Note that dest is only used to store the result, and does not supply arguments to f unless it is also listed in the As, as in broadcast!(f, A, A, B) to perform A[:] = broadcast(f, A, B).

Examples

julia> A = [1.0; 0.0]; B = [0.0; 0.0];

Base.Broadcast.@__dot__Macro
@. expr

Convert every function call or operator in expr into a "dot call" (e.g. convert f(x) to f.(x)), and convert every assignment in expr to a "dot assignment" (e.g. convert += to .+=).

If you want to avoid adding dots for selected function calls in expr, splice those function calls in with $. For example, @. sqrt(abs($sort(x))) is equivalent to sqrt.(abs.(sort(x))) (no dot for sort).

(@. is equivalent to a call to @__dot__.)

For specializing broadcast on custom types, see

Base.Broadcast.BroadcastStyleType

BroadcastStyle is an abstract type and trait-function used to determine behavior of objects under broadcasting. BroadcastStyle(typeof(x)) returns the style associated with x. To customize the broadcasting behavior of a type, one can declare a style by defining a type/method pair

struct MyContainerStyle <: BroadcastStyle end
Base.BroadcastStyle(::Type{<:MyContainer}) = MyContainerStyle()

One then writes method(s) (at least similar) operating on Broadcasted{MyContainerStyle}. There are also several pre-defined subtypes of BroadcastStyle that you may be able to leverage; see the Interfaces chapter for more information.

source
Base.Broadcast.AbstractArrayStyleType

Broadcast.AbstractArrayStyle{N} <: BroadcastStyle is the abstract supertype for any style associated with an AbstractArray type. The N parameter is the dimensionality, which can be handy for AbstractArray types that only support specific dimensionalities:

struct SparseMatrixStyle <: Broadcast.AbstractArrayStyle{2} end
Base.BroadcastStyle(::Type{<:SparseMatrixCSC}) = SparseMatrixStyle()

For AbstractArray types that support arbitrary dimensionality, N can be set to Any:

struct MyArrayStyle <: Broadcast.AbstractArrayStyle{Any} end
Base.BroadcastStyle(::Type{<:MyArray}) = MyArrayStyle()

In cases where you want to be able to mix multiple AbstractArrayStyles and keep track of dimensionality, your style needs to support a Val constructor:

struct MyArrayStyleDim{N} <: Broadcast.AbstractArrayStyle{N} end
(::Type{<:MyArrayStyleDim})(::Val{N}) where N = MyArrayStyleDim{N}()

Note that if two or more AbstractArrayStyle subtypes conflict, broadcasting machinery will fall back to producing Arrays. If this is undesirable, you may need to define binary BroadcastStyle rules to control the output type.

See also Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle.

source
Base.Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyleType

Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle{N}() is a BroadcastStyle indicating that an object behaves as an N-dimensional array for broadcasting. Specifically, DefaultArrayStyle is used for any AbstractArray type that hasn't defined a specialized style, and in the absence of overrides from other broadcast arguments the resulting output type is Array. When there are multiple inputs to broadcast, DefaultArrayStyle "loses" to any other Broadcast.ArrayStyle.

source
Base.Broadcast.broadcastableFunction
Broadcast.broadcastable(x)

Return either x or an object like x such that it supports axes, indexing, and its type supports ndims.

If x supports iteration, the returned value should have the same axes and indexing behaviors as collect(x).

If x is not an AbstractArray but it supports axes, indexing, and its type supports ndims, then broadcastable(::typeof(x)) may be implemented to just return itself. Further, if x defines its own BroadcastStyle, then it must define its broadcastable method to return itself for the custom style to have any effect.

Examples

julia> Broadcast.broadcastable([1,2,3]) # like `identity` since arrays already support axes and indexing
3-element Vector{Int64}:
 1
 2
 3

julia> Broadcast.broadcastable(Int) # Types don't support axes, indexing, or iteration but are commonly used as scalars
Base.RefValue{Type{Int64}}(Int64)

julia> Broadcast.broadcastable("hello") # Strings break convention of matching iteration and act like a scalar instead
Base.RefValue{String}("hello")
source
Base.Broadcast.combine_axesFunction
combine_axes(As...) -> Tuple

Determine the result axes for broadcasting across all values in As.

julia> Broadcast.combine_axes([1], [1 2; 3 4; 5 6])
(Base.OneTo(3), Base.OneTo(2))

julia> Broadcast.combine_axes(1, 1, 1)
()
source
Base.Broadcast.combine_stylesFunction
combine_styles(cs...) -> BroadcastStyle

Decides which BroadcastStyle to use for any number of value arguments. Uses BroadcastStyle to get the style for each argument, and uses result_style to combine styles.

Examples

julia> Broadcast.combine_styles([1], [1 2; 3 4])
Base.Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle{2}()
source
Base.Broadcast.result_styleFunction
result_style(s1::BroadcastStyle[, s2::BroadcastStyle]) -> BroadcastStyle

Takes one or two BroadcastStyles and combines them using BroadcastStyle to determine a common BroadcastStyle.

Examples

julia> Broadcast.result_style(Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle{0}(), Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle{3}())
Base.Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle{3}()

julia> Broadcast.result_style(Broadcast.Unknown(), Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle{1}())
Base.Broadcast.DefaultArrayStyle{1}()

Indexing and assignment

Base.getindexMethod
getindex(A, inds...)

Return a subset of array A as specified by inds, where each ind may be, for example, an Int, an AbstractRange, or a Vector. See the manual section on array indexing for details.

Examples

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4]
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 1  2
 3  4

julia> getindex(A, 1)
1

julia> getindex(A, [2, 1])
2-element Vector{Int64}:
 3
 1

julia> getindex(A, 2:4)
3-element Vector{Int64}:
 3
 2
 4
source
Base.setindex!Method
setindex!(A, X, inds...)
A[inds...] = X

Store values from array X within some subset of A as specified by inds. The syntax A[inds...] = X is equivalent to (setindex!(A, X, inds...); X).

Examples

julia> A = zeros(2,2);

julia> setindex!(A, [10, 20], [1, 2]);

julia> A[[3, 4]] = [30, 40];

julia> A
2×2 Matrix{Float64}:
 10.0  30.0
 20.0  40.0
source
Base.copyto!Method
copyto!(dest, Rdest::CartesianIndices, src, Rsrc::CartesianIndices) -> dest

Copy the block of src in the range of Rsrc to the block of dest in the range of Rdest. The sizes of the two regions must match.

source
Base.isassignedFunction
isassigned(array, i) -> Bool

Test whether the given array has a value associated with index i. Return false if the index is out of bounds, or has an undefined reference.

Examples

julia> isassigned(rand(3, 3), 5)
true

julia> isassigned(rand(3, 3), 3 * 3 + 1)
false

julia> mutable struct Foo end

julia> v = similar(rand(3), Foo)
3-element Vector{Foo}:
 #undef
 #undef
 #undef

julia> isassigned(v, 1)
false
source
Base.ColonType
Colon()

Colons (:) are used to signify indexing entire objects or dimensions at once.

Very few operations are defined on Colons directly; instead they are converted by to_indices to an internal vector type (Base.Slice) to represent the collection of indices they span before being used.

The singleton instance of Colon is also a function used to construct ranges; see :.

source
Base.IteratorsMD.CartesianIndexType
CartesianIndex(i, j, k...)   -> I
CartesianIndex((i, j, k...)) -> I

Create a multidimensional index I, which can be used for indexing a multidimensional array A. In particular, A[I] is equivalent to A[i,j,k...]. One can freely mix integer and CartesianIndex indices; for example, A[Ipre, i, Ipost] (where Ipre and Ipost are CartesianIndex indices and i is an Int) can be a useful expression when writing algorithms that work along a single dimension of an array of arbitrary dimensionality.

A CartesianIndex is sometimes produced by eachindex, and always when iterating with an explicit CartesianIndices.

Examples

julia> A = reshape(Vector(1:16), (2, 2, 2, 2))
2×2×2×2 Array{Int64, 4}:
[:, :, 1, 1] =
 1  3
 2  4

[:, :, 2, 1] =
 5  7
 6  8

[:, :, 1, 2] =
  9  11
 10  12

[:, :, 2, 2] =
 13  15
 14  16

julia> A[CartesianIndex((1, 1, 1, 1))]
1

julia> A[CartesianIndex((1, 1, 1, 2))]
9

julia> A[CartesianIndex((1, 1, 2, 1))]
5
source
Base.IteratorsMD.CartesianIndicesType
CartesianIndices(sz::Dims) -> R
CartesianIndices((istart:[istep:]istop, jstart:[jstep:]jstop, ...)) -> R

Define a region R spanning a multidimensional rectangular range of integer indices. These are most commonly encountered in the context of iteration, where for I in R ... end will return CartesianIndex indices I equivalent to the nested loops

for j = jstart:jstep:jstop
    for i = istart:istep:istop
        ...
    end
end

Consequently these can be useful for writing algorithms that work in arbitrary dimensions.

CartesianIndices(A::AbstractArray) -> R

As a convenience, constructing a CartesianIndices from an array makes a range of its indices.

Julia 1.6

The step range method CartesianIndices((istart:istep:istop, jstart:[jstep:]jstop, ...)) requires at least Julia 1.6.

Examples

julia> foreach(println, CartesianIndices((2, 2, 2)))
CartesianIndex(1, 1, 1)
CartesianIndex(2, 1, 1)
CartesianIndex(1, 2, 1)
CartesianIndex(2, 2, 1)
CartesianIndex(1, 1, 2)
CartesianIndex(2, 1, 2)
CartesianIndex(1, 2, 2)
CartesianIndex(2, 2, 2)

julia> CartesianIndices(fill(1, (2,3)))
2×3 CartesianIndices{2, Tuple{Base.OneTo{Int64}, Base.OneTo{Int64}}}:
 CartesianIndex(1, 1)  CartesianIndex(1, 2)  CartesianIndex(1, 3)
 CartesianIndex(2, 1)  CartesianIndex(2, 2)  CartesianIndex(2, 3)

Conversion between linear and cartesian indices

Linear index to cartesian index conversion exploits the fact that a CartesianIndices is an AbstractArray and can be indexed linearly:

julia> cartesian = CartesianIndices((1:3, 1:2))
3×2 CartesianIndices{2, Tuple{UnitRange{Int64}, UnitRange{Int64}}}:
 CartesianIndex(1, 1)  CartesianIndex(1, 2)
 CartesianIndex(2, 1)  CartesianIndex(2, 2)
 CartesianIndex(3, 1)  CartesianIndex(3, 2)

julia> cartesian[4]
CartesianIndex(1, 2)

julia> cartesian = CartesianIndices((1:2:5, 1:2))
3×2 CartesianIndices{2, Tuple{StepRange{Int64, Int64}, UnitRange{Int64}}}:
 CartesianIndex(1, 1)  CartesianIndex(1, 2)
 CartesianIndex(3, 1)  CartesianIndex(3, 2)
 CartesianIndex(5, 1)  CartesianIndex(5, 2)

julia> cartesian[2, 2]
CartesianIndex(3, 2)

Broadcasting

CartesianIndices support broadcasting arithmetic (+ and -) with a CartesianIndex.

Julia 1.1

Broadcasting of CartesianIndices requires at least Julia 1.1.

julia> CIs = CartesianIndices((2:3, 5:6))
2×2 CartesianIndices{2, Tuple{UnitRange{Int64}, UnitRange{Int64}}}:
 CartesianIndex(2, 5)  CartesianIndex(2, 6)
 CartesianIndex(3, 5)  CartesianIndex(3, 6)

julia> CI = CartesianIndex(3, 4)
CartesianIndex(3, 4)

julia> CIs .+ CI
2×2 CartesianIndices{2, Tuple{UnitRange{Int64}, UnitRange{Int64}}}:
 CartesianIndex(5, 9)  CartesianIndex(5, 10)
 CartesianIndex(6, 9)  CartesianIndex(6, 10)

For cartesian to linear index conversion, see LinearIndices.

source
Base.LinearIndicesType
LinearIndices(A::AbstractArray)

Return a LinearIndices array with the same shape and axes as A, holding the linear index of each entry in A. Indexing this array with cartesian indices allows mapping them to linear indices.

For arrays with conventional indexing (indices start at 1), or any multidimensional array, linear indices range from 1 to length(A). However, for AbstractVectors linear indices are axes(A, 1), and therefore do not start at 1 for vectors with unconventional indexing.

Calling this function is the "safe" way to write algorithms that exploit linear indexing.

Examples

julia> A = fill(1, (5,6,7));

julia> b = LinearIndices(A);

julia> extrema(b)
(1, 210)
LinearIndices(inds::CartesianIndices) -> R
LinearIndices(sz::Dims) -> R
LinearIndices((istart:istop, jstart:jstop, ...)) -> R

Return a LinearIndices array with the specified shape or axes.

Example

The main purpose of this constructor is intuitive conversion from cartesian to linear indexing:

julia> linear = LinearIndices((1:3, 1:2))
3×2 LinearIndices{2, Tuple{UnitRange{Int64}, UnitRange{Int64}}}:
 1  4
 2  5
 3  6

julia> linear[1,2]
4
source
Base.to_indicesFunction
to_indices(A, I::Tuple)

Convert the tuple I to a tuple of indices for use in indexing into array A.

The returned tuple must only contain either Ints or AbstractArrays of scalar indices that are supported by array A. It will error upon encountering a novel index type that it does not know how to process.

For simple index types, it defers to the unexported Base.to_index(A, i) to process each index i. While this internal function is not intended to be called directly, Base.to_index may be extended by custom array or index types to provide custom indexing behaviors.

More complicated index types may require more context about the dimension into which they index. To support those cases, to_indices(A, I) calls to_indices(A, axes(A), I), which then recursively walks through both the given tuple of indices and the dimensional indices of A in tandem. As such, not all index types are guaranteed to propagate to Base.to_index.

source
Base.checkboundsFunction
checkbounds(Bool, A, I...)

Return true if the specified indices I are in bounds for the given array A. Subtypes of AbstractArray should specialize this method if they need to provide custom bounds checking behaviors; however, in many cases one can rely on A's indices and checkindex.

See also checkindex.

Examples

julia> A = rand(3, 3);

julia> checkbounds(Bool, A, 2)
true

julia> checkbounds(Bool, A, 3, 4)
false

julia> checkbounds(Bool, A, 1:3)
true

julia> checkbounds(Bool, A, 1:3, 2:4)
false
source
checkbounds(A, I...)

Throw an error if the specified indices I are not in bounds for the given array A.

source
Base.checkindexFunction
checkindex(Bool, inds::AbstractUnitRange, index)

Return true if the given index is within the bounds of inds. Custom types that would like to behave as indices for all arrays can extend this method in order to provide a specialized bounds checking implementation.

See also checkbounds.

Examples

julia> checkindex(Bool, 1:20, 8)
true

julia> checkindex(Bool, 1:20, 21)
false
source

Views (SubArrays and other view types)

Base.viewFunction
view(A, inds...)

Like getindex, but returns a lightweight array that lazily references (or is effectively a view into) the parent array A at the given index or indices inds instead of eagerly extracting elements or constructing a copied subset. Calling getindex or setindex! on the returned value (often a SubArray) computes the indices to access or modify the parent array on the fly. The behavior is undefined if the shape of the parent array is changed after view is called because there is no bound check for the parent array; e.g., it may cause a segmentation fault.

Some immutable parent arrays (like ranges) may choose to simply recompute a new array in some circumstances instead of returning a SubArray if doing so is efficient and provides compatible semantics.

Julia 1.6

In Julia 1.6 or later, view can be called on an AbstractString, returning a SubString.

Examples

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4]
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 1  2
 3  4

julia> b = view(A, :, 1)
2-element view(::Matrix{Int64}, :, 1) with eltype Int64:
 1
 3

julia> fill!(b, 0)
2-element view(::Matrix{Int64}, :, 1) with eltype Int64:
 0
 0

julia> A # Note A has changed even though we modified b
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 0  2
 0  4

julia> view(2:5, 2:3) # returns a range as type is immutable
3:4
source
Base.@viewMacro
@view A[inds...]

Transform the indexing expression A[inds...] into the equivalent view call.

This can only be applied directly to a single indexing expression and is particularly helpful for expressions that include the special begin or end indexing syntaxes like A[begin, 2:end-1] (as those are not supported by the normal view function).

Note that @view cannot be used as the target of a regular assignment (e.g., @view(A[1, 2:end]) = ...), nor would the un-decorated indexed assignment (A[1, 2:end] = ...) or broadcasted indexed assignment (A[1, 2:end] .= ...) make a copy. It can be useful, however, for updating broadcasted assignments like @view(A[1, 2:end]) .+= 1 because this is a simple syntax for @view(A[1, 2:end]) .= @view(A[1, 2:end]) + 1, and the indexing expression on the right-hand side would otherwise make a copy without the @view.

See also @views to switch an entire block of code to use views for non-scalar indexing.

Julia 1.5

Using begin in an indexing expression to refer to the first index requires at least Julia 1.5.

Examples

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4]
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 1  2
 3  4

julia> b = @view A[:, 1]
2-element view(::Matrix{Int64}, :, 1) with eltype Int64:
 1
 3

julia> fill!(b, 0)
2-element view(::Matrix{Int64}, :, 1) with eltype Int64:
 0
 0

julia> A
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 0  2
 0  4
source
Base.@viewsMacro
@views expression

Convert every array-slicing operation in the given expression (which may be a begin/end block, loop, function, etc.) to return a view. Scalar indices, non-array types, and explicit getindex calls (as opposed to array[...]) are unaffected.

Note

The @views macro only affects array[...] expressions that appear explicitly in the given expression, not array slicing that occurs in functions called by that code.

Julia 1.5

Using begin in an indexing expression to refer to the first index requires at least Julia 1.5.

Examples

julia> A = zeros(3, 3);

julia> @views for row in 1:3
           b = A[row, :]
           b[:] .= row
       end

julia> A
3×3 Matrix{Float64}:
 1.0  1.0  1.0
 2.0  2.0  2.0
 3.0  3.0  3.0
source
Base.parentFunction
parent(A)

Return the underlying "parent array”. This parent array of objects of types SubArray, ReshapedArray or LinearAlgebra.Transpose is what was passed as an argument to view, reshape, transpose, etc. during object creation. If the input is not a wrapped object, return the input itself. If the input is wrapped multiple times, only the outermost wrapper will be removed.

Examples

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4]
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 1  2
 3  4

julia> V = view(A, 1:2, :)
2×2 view(::Matrix{Int64}, 1:2, :) with eltype Int64:

julia> parent(V)
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:

Base.parentindicesFunction
parentindices(A)

Return the indices in the parent which correspond to the array view A.

Examples

julia> A = [1 2; 3 4];

julia> V = view(A, 1, :)
2-element view(::Matrix{Int64}, 1, :) with eltype Int64:
 1

julia> parentindices(V)

source
Base.selectdimFunction
selectdim(A, d::Integer, i)

Return a view of all the data of A where the index for dimension d equals i.

Equivalent to view(A,:,:,...,i,:,:,...) where i is in position d.

See also: eachslice.

Examples

julia> A = [1 2 3 4; 5 6 7 8]
2×4 Matrix{Int64}:

source
Base.reinterpretFunction
reinterpret(type, A)

Change the type-interpretation of a block of memory. For arrays, this constructs a view of the array with the same binary data as the given array, but with the specified element type. For example, reinterpret(Float32, UInt32(7)) interprets the 4 bytes corresponding to UInt32(7) as a Float32.

Examples

julia> reinterpret(Float32, UInt32(7))
1.0f-44

julia> reinterpret(Float32, UInt32[1 2 3 4 5])
1×5 reinterpret(Float32, ::Matrix{UInt32}):
 1.0f-45  3.0f-45  4.0f-45  6.0f-45  7.0f-45
source
reinterpret(reshape, T, A::AbstractArray{S}) -> B

Change the type-interpretation of A while consuming or adding a "channel dimension."

If sizeof(T) = n*sizeof(S) for n>1, A's first dimension must be of size n and B lacks A's first dimension. Conversely, if sizeof(S) = n*sizeof(T) for n>1, B gets a new first dimension of size n. The dimensionality is unchanged if sizeof(T) == sizeof(S).

Julia 1.6

This method requires at least Julia 1.6.

Base.reshapeFunction
reshape(A, dims...) -> AbstractArray
reshape(A, dims) -> AbstractArray

Return an array with the same data as A, but with different dimension sizes or number of dimensions. The two arrays share the same underlying data, so that the result is mutable if and only if A is mutable, and setting elements of one alters the values of the other.

The new dimensions may be specified either as a list of arguments or as a shape tuple. At most one dimension may be specified with a :, in which case its length is computed such that its product with all the specified dimensions is equal to the length of the original array A. The total number of elements must not change.

Base.dropdimsFunction
dropdims(A; dims)

Return an array with the same data as A, but with the dimensions specified by dims removed. size(A,d) must equal 1 for every d in dims, and repeated dimensions or numbers outside 1:ndims(A) are forbidden.

The result shares the same underlying data as A, such that the result is mutable if and only if A is mutable, and setting elements of one alters the values of the other.

Base.vecFunction
vec(a::AbstractArray) -> AbstractVector

Reshape the array a as a one-dimensional column vector. Return a if it is already an AbstractVector. The resulting array shares the same underlying data as a, so it will only be mutable if a is mutable, in which case modifying one will also modify the other.

Concatenation and permutation

Base.catFunction
cat(A...; dims)

Concatenate the input arrays along the specified dimensions in the iterable dims. For dimensions not in dims, all input arrays should have the same size, which will also be the size of the output array along that dimension. For dimensions in dims, the size of the output array is the sum of the sizes of the input arrays along that dimension. If dims is a single number, the different arrays are tightly stacked along that dimension. If dims is an iterable containing several dimensions, this allows one to construct block diagonal matrices and their higher-dimensional analogues by simultaneously increasing several dimensions for every new input array and putting zero blocks elsewhere. For example, cat(matrices...; dims=(1,2)) builds a block diagonal matrix, i.e. a block matrix with matrices[1], matrices[2], ... as diagonal blocks and matching zero blocks away from the diagonal.

Base.vcatFunction
vcat(A...)

Concatenate along dimension 1.

Base.circshift!Function
circshift!(dest, src, shifts)

Circularly shift, i.e. rotate, the data in src, storing the result in dest. shifts specifies the amount to shift in each dimension.

See also circshift.

source
Base.circcopy!Function
circcopy!(dest, src)

Copy src to dest, indexing each dimension modulo its length. src and dest must have the same size, but can be offset in their indices; any offset results in a (circular) wraparound. If the arrays have overlapping indices, then on the domain of the overlap dest agrees with src.

Note

The return array's eltype is Int for signed integers of less than system word size and UInt for unsigned integers of less than system word size. To preserve eltype of arrays with small signed or unsigned integer accumulate(+, A) should be used.

 100
 128

julia> accumulate(+,Int8[100, 28])
2-element Vector{Int8}:

Base.mapslicesFunction
mapslices(f, A; dims)

Transform the given dimensions of array A using function f. f is called on each slice of A of the form A[...,:,...,:,...]. dims is an integer vector specifying where the colons go in this expression. The results are concatenated along the remaining dimensions. For example, if dims is [1,2] and A is 4-dimensional, f is called on A[:,:,i,j] for all i and j.

Base.permute!Method
permute!(v, p)

Permute vector v in-place, according to permutation p. No checking is done to verify that p is a permutation.

To return a new permutation, use v[p]. Note that this is generally faster than permute!(v,p) for large vectors.

See also invpermute!.

Examples

julia> A = [1, 1, 3, 4];

julia> perm = [2, 4, 3, 1];

julia> permute!(A, perm);

Base.reverseMethod
reverse(A; dims=:)

Reverse A along dimension dims, which can be an integer (a single dimension), a tuple of integers (a tuple of dimensions) or : (reverse along all the dimensions, the default). See also reverse! for in-place reversal.

Examples

julia> b = Int64[1 2; 3 4]
2×2 Matrix{Int64}:
 1  2

Julia 1.6

Prior to Julia 1.6, only single-integer dims are supported in reverse.

source
Base.reverseindFunction
reverseind(v, i)

Given an index i in reverse(v), return the corresponding index in v so that v[reverseind(v,i)] == reverse(v)[i]. (This can be nontrivial in cases where v contains non-ASCII characters.)

Examples

julia> s = "Julia🚀"
"Julia🚀"

julia> r = reverse(s)
"🚀ailuJ"

julia> for i in eachindex(s)
           print(r[reverseind(r, i)])
       end
Julia🚀
source
Base.reverse!Function
reverse!(v [, start=1 [, stop=length(v) ]]) -> v

In-place version of reverse.
