0821-len() for np.ndarray
The len()
function in Python, when applied to a NumPy array, returns the size of the first dimension (i.e., the length of the outermost dimension). This behavior is consistent regardless of the number of dimensions the array has.
Here's how len()
behaves for arrays with different dimensions:
For an array with a dimension of
(3, 2)
,len()
will return3
. This is because the array has 3 rows, andlen()
gives the number of elements along the first axis (the number of rows in this case).For an array with a dimension of
(2, 3)
,len()
will return2
. This is because the array has 2 rows.
In summary, for a two-dimensional array defined as shape = (m, n)
, len(np.array)
will return m
.
