ILNumerics Ultimate VS Documentation

ILNumerics - Technical Application Development

[numpy API] Create a new array from generic input array, specify element type and storage order. This function is provided for compatibility with generic array types.

[ILNumerics numpy Module]

Namespace: ILNumerics
Assembly: ILNumerics.numpy (in ILNumerics.numpy.dll) Version: 5.5.0.0 (5.5.7503.3146)

Syntax

Copy

public static RetArray<Tout> astype<Tin, Tout>(
	this BaseArray<Tin> A,
	Nullable<StorageOrders> order = null
)
where Tin : struct, new()
where Tout : struct, new()

<ExtensionAttribute>
Public Shared Function astype(Of Tin As {Structure, New}, Tout As {Structure, New}) ( 
	A As BaseArray(Of Tin),
	Optional order As Nullable(Of StorageOrders) = Nothing
) As RetArray(Of Tout)

Dim A As BaseArray(Of Tin)
Dim order As Nullable(Of StorageOrders)
Dim returnValue As RetArray(Of Tout)

returnValue = A.astype(order)

Parameters

A: Type: ILNumericsBaseArrayTin
This array.
order (Optional): Type: SystemNullableStorageOrders
[Optional] Storage order for the target array. Choices: null (default) - auto, ColumnMajor or RowMajor.

Type Parameters

Tin: The element type of the input. Must be a non-nullable value type.
Tout: The target element type. Must be a non-nullable value type.

Return Value

Type: RetArrayTout
New array with the same shape as this array, having the element type converted to Tout.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type BaseArrayTin. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
