From Existing Data

nlcpy.array

Creates an array.

nlcpy.asarray

Converts the input to an array.

nlcpy.asanyarray

Converts the input to an array, but passes ndarray subclasses through.

nlcpy.copy

Returns an array copy of the given object.

nlcpy.fromfile

Constructs an array from data in a text or binary file.

nlcpy.loadtxt

Loads data from a text file.

Numerical Ranges

nlcpy.arange

Returns evenly spaced values within a given interval.

nlcpy.linspace

Returns evenly spaced numbers over a specified interval.

nlcpy.logspace

Returns numbers spaced evenly on a log scale.

nlcpy.meshgrid

Returns coordinate matrices from coordinate vectors.

Building Matrices

nlcpy.diag

Extracts a diagonal or constructs a diagonal array.

nlcpy.diagflat

Creates a two-dimensional array with the flattened input as a diagonal.

nlcpy.tri

An array with ones at and below the given diagonal and zeros elsewhere.

nlcpy.tril

Lower triangle of an array.

nlcpy.triu

Upper triangle of an array.
