将NumPy数组追加到NumPy数组

I have a numpy_array. Something like [ a b c ].

And then I want to concatenate it with another NumPy array (just like we create a list of lists). How do we create a NumPy array containing NumPy arrays?

I tried to do the following without any luck

>>> M = np.array([])
>>> M
array([], dtype=float64)
>>> M.append(a,axis=0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'numpy.ndarray' object has no attribute 'append'
>>> a
array([1, 2, 3])

In [1]: import numpy as np

In [2]: a = np.array([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])

In [3]: b = np.array([[9, 8, 7], [6, 5, 4]])

In [4]: np.concatenate((a, b))
Out[4]: 
array([[1, 2, 3],
       [4, 5, 6],
       [9, 8, 7],
       [6, 5, 4]])

or this:

In [1]: a = np.array([1, 2, 3])

In [2]: b = np.array([4, 5, 6])

In [3]: np.vstack((a, b))
Out[3]: 
array([[1, 2, 3],
       [4, 5, 6]])

Well, the error message says it all: NumPy arrays do not have an append() method. There’s a free function numpy.append() however:

numpy.append(M, a)

This will create a new array instead of mutating M in place. Note that using numpy.append() involves copying both arrays. You will get better performing code if you use fixed-sized NumPy arrays.

You may use numpy.append()…

import numpy

B = numpy.array([3])
A = numpy.array([1, 2, 2])
B = numpy.append( B , A )

print B

> [3 1 2 2]

This will not create two separate arrays but will append two arrays into a single dimensional array.

Sven said it all, just be very cautious because of automatic type adjustments when append is called.

In [2]: import numpy as np

In [3]: a = np.array([1,2,3])

In [4]: b = np.array([1.,2.,3.])

In [5]: c = np.array(['a','b','c'])

In [6]: np.append(a,b)
Out[6]: array([ 1.,  2.,  3.,  1.,  2.,  3.])

In [7]: a.dtype
Out[7]: dtype('int64')

In [8]: np.append(a,c)
Out[8]: 
array(['1', '2', '3', 'a', 'b', 'c'], 
      dtype='|S1')

As you see based on the contents the dtype went from int64 to float32, and then to S1

I found this link while looking for something slightly different, how to start appending array objects to an empty numpy array, but tried all the solutions on this page to no avail.

Then I found this question and answer: How to add a new row to an empty numpy array

The gist here:

The way to “start” the array that you want is:

arr = np.empty((0,3), int)

Then you can use concatenate to add rows like so:

arr = np.concatenate( ( arr, [[x, y, z]] ) , axis=0)

See also https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.concatenate.html

Actually one can always create an ordinary list of numpy arrays and convert it later.

In [1]: import numpy as np

In [2]: a = np.array([[1,2],[3,4]])

In [3]: b = np.array([[1,2],[3,4]])

In [4]: l = [a]

In [5]: l.append(b)

In [6]: l = np.array(l)

In [7]: l.shape
Out[7]: (2, 2, 2)

In [8]: l
Out[8]: 
array([[[1, 2],
        [3, 4]],

       [[1, 2],
        [3, 4]]])

I had the same issue, and I couldn’t comment on @Sven Marnach answer (not enough rep, gosh I remember when Stackoverflow first started…) anyway.

Adding a list of random numbers to a 10 X 10 matrix.

myNpArray = np.zeros([1, 10])
for x in range(1,11,1):
    randomList = [list(np.random.randint(99, size=10))]
    myNpArray = np.vstack((myNpArray, randomList))
myNpArray = myNpArray[1:]

Using np.zeros() an array is created with 1 x 10 zeros.

array([[0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0., 0.]])

Then a list of 10 random numbers is created using np.random and assigned to randomList. The loop stacks it 10 high. We just have to remember to remove the first empty entry.

myNpArray

array([[31., 10., 19., 78., 95., 58.,  3., 47., 30., 56.],
       [51., 97.,  5., 80., 28., 76., 92., 50., 22., 93.],
       [64., 79.,  7., 12., 68., 13., 59., 96., 32., 34.],
       [44., 22., 46., 56., 73., 42., 62.,  4., 62., 83.],
       [91., 28., 54., 69., 60., 95.,  5., 13., 60., 88.],
       [71., 90., 76., 53., 13., 53., 31.,  3., 96., 57.],
       [33., 87., 81.,  7., 53., 46.,  5.,  8., 20., 71.],
       [46., 71., 14., 66., 68., 65., 68., 32.,  9., 30.],
       [ 1., 35., 96., 92., 72., 52., 88., 86., 94., 88.],
       [13., 36., 43., 45., 90., 17., 38.,  1., 41., 33.]])

So in a function:

def array_matrix(random_range, array_size):
    myNpArray = np.zeros([1, array_size])
    for x in range(1, array_size + 1, 1):
        randomList = [list(np.random.randint(random_range, size=array_size))]
        myNpArray = np.vstack((myNpArray, randomList))
    return myNpArray[1:]

a 7 x 7 array using random numbers 0 – 1000

array_matrix(1000, 7)

array([[621., 377., 931., 180., 964., 885., 723.],
       [298., 382., 148., 952., 430., 333., 956.],
       [398., 596., 732., 422., 656., 348., 470.],
       [735., 251., 314., 182., 966., 261., 523.],
       [373., 616., 389.,  90., 884., 957., 826.],
       [587., 963.,  66., 154., 111., 529., 945.],
       [950., 413., 539., 860., 634., 195., 915.]])

If I understand your question, here’s one way. Say you have:

a = [4.1, 6.21, 1.0]

so here’s some code…

def array_in_array(scalarlist):
    return [(x,) for x in scalarlist]

Which leads to:

In [72]: a = [4.1, 6.21, 1.0]

In [73]: a
Out[73]: [4.1, 6.21, 1.0]

In [74]: def array_in_array(scalarlist):
   ....:     return [(x,) for x in scalarlist]
   ....: 

In [75]: b = array_in_array(a)

In [76]: b
Out[76]: [(4.1,), (6.21,), (1.0,)]

Try this code :

import numpy as np

a1 = np.array([])

n = int(input(""))

for i in range(0,n):
    a = int(input(""))
    a1 = np.append(a, a1)
    a = 0

print(a1)

Also you can use array instead of “a”
