class dislib.data.array.Array(blocks, top_left_shape, reg_shape, shape, sparse, delete=True)[source]¶

Bases: object

A distributed 2-dimensional array divided in blocks.

Normally, this class should not be instantiated directly, but created using one of the array creation routines provided.

Apart from the different methods provided, this class also supports the following types of indexing:

A[i] : returns a single row

A[i, j] : returns a single element

A[i:j] : returns a set of rows (with i and j optional)

A[:, i:j] : returns a set of columns (with i and j optional)

A[[i,j,k]] : returns a set of non-consecutive rows. Rows are

returned ordered by their index in the input array. - A[:, [i,j,k]] : returns a set of non-consecutive columns. Columns are returned ordered by their index in the input array. - A[i:j, k:m] : returns a set of elements (with i, j,

k, and m optional)

Parameters

blocks (list) – List of lists of nd-array or spmatrix.
top_left_shape (tuple) – A single tuple indicating the shape of the top-left block.
