About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

sliceDimensionFrom

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Return a read-only shifted view of an input ndarray along a specified dimension.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/ndarray-slice-dimension-from

Usage

var sliceDimensionFrom = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-slice-dimension-from' );

sliceDimensionFrom( x, dim, start[, options] )

Returns a read-only shifted view of an input ndarray along a specified dimension.

var ndarray = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-ctor' );
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-to-array' );

var buffer = [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ];
var shape = [ 3, 2 ];
var strides = [ 2, 1 ];
var offset = 0;

var x = ndarray( 'generic', buffer, shape, strides, offset, 'row-major' );
// returns <ndarray>

var sh = x.shape;
// returns [ 3, 2 ]

var arr = ndarray2array( x );
// returns [ [ 1.0, 2.0 ], [ 3.0, 4.0 ], [ 5.0, 6.0 ] ]

var y = sliceDimensionFrom( x, 0, 1 );
// returns <ndarray>

sh = y.shape;
// returns [ 2, 2 ]

arr = ndarray2array( y );
// returns [ [ 3.0, 4.0 ], [ 5.0, 6.0 ] ]

The function accepts the following arguments:

  • x: input ndarray.
  • dim: index of dimension along which to slice. If provided an integer less than zero, the dimension index is resolved relative to the last dimension, with the last dimension corresponding to the value -1.
  • start: starting index (inclusive). If provided an integer less than zero, the corresponding element along the specified dimension is resolved relative to the last element along that dimension. For negative integers, the last element corresponds to the value -1.
  • options: function options.

The function supports the following options:

  • strict: boolean indicating whether to enforce strict bounds checking.

By default, the function throws an error when provided a starting index which exceeds array bounds. To return an empty array when a starting index exceeds array bounds, set the strict option to false.

var ndarray = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-ctor' );
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-to-array' );

var buffer = [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ];
var shape = [ 3, 2 ];
var strides = [ 2, 1 ];
var offset = 0;

var x = ndarray( 'generic', buffer, shape, strides, offset, 'row-major' );
// returns <ndarray>

var sh = x.shape;
// returns [ 3, 2 ]

var arr = ndarray2array( x );
// returns [ [ 1.0, 2.0 ], [ 3.0, 4.0 ], [ 5.0, 6.0 ] ]

var y = sliceDimensionFrom( x, 1, 20, {
    'strict': false
});
// returns <ndarray>

sh = y.shape;
// returns [ 3, 0 ]

arr = ndarray2array( y );
// returns []

Examples

var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-array' );
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-to-array' );
var zeroTo = require( '@stdlib/array-base-zero-to' );
var sliceDimensionFrom = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-slice-dimension-from' );

// Create a linear ndarray buffer:
var buf = zeroTo( 27 );

// Create an ndarray:
var x = array( buf, {
    'shape': [ 3, 3, 3 ]
});

// Get the last two rows of each matrix:
var y1 = sliceDimensionFrom( x, 1, 1 );
// returns <ndarray>

var a1 = ndarray2array( y1 );
// returns [ [ [ 3, 4, 5 ], [ 6, 7, 8 ] ], [ [ 12, 13, 14 ], [ 15, 16, 17 ] ], [ [ 21, 22, 23 ], [ 24, 25, 26 ] ] ]

// Get the last columns of each matrix:
var y2 = sliceDimensionFrom( x, 2, 1 );
// returns <ndarray>

var a2 = ndarray2array( y2 );
// returns [ [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 4, 5 ], [ 7, 8 ] ], [ [ 10, 11 ], [ 13, 14 ], [ 16, 17 ] ], [ [ 19, 20 ], [ 22, 23 ], [ 25, 26 ] ] ]

// Get the last two matrices:
var y3 = sliceDimensionFrom( x, 0, 1 );
// returns <ndarray>

var a3 = ndarray2array( y3 );
// returns [ [ [ 9, 10, 11 ], [ 12, 13, 14 ], [ 15, 16, 17 ] ], [ [ 18, 19, 20 ], [ 21, 22, 23 ], [ 24, 25, 26 ] ] ]
