numpy之a.mean

 

1. mean() 函数定义：

numpy.mean(a, axis=None, dtype=None, out=None, keepdims=<class numpy._globals._NoValue at 0x40b6a26c>)[source]

Compute the arithmetic mean along the specified axis.

Returns the average of the array elements. The average is taken over the flattened array by default, otherwise over the specified axis. float64intermediate and return values are used for integer inputs.
 

 Parameters: 	

a : array_like

    Array containing numbers whose mean is desired. If a is not an array, a conversion is attempted.

axis : None or int or tuple of ints, optional

    Axis or axes along which the means are computed. The default is to compute the mean of the flattened array.

    New in version 1.7.0.

    If this is a tuple of ints, a mean is performed over multiple axes, instead of a single axis or all the axes as before.

dtype : data-type, optional

    Type to use in computing the mean. For integer inputs, the default is float64; for floating point inputs, it is the same as the input dtype.

out : ndarray, optional

    Alternate output array in which to place the result. The default is None; if provided, it must have the same shape as the expected output, but the type will be cast if necessary. See doc.ufuncs for details.

keepdims : bool, optional

    If this is set to True, the axes which are reduced are left in the result as dimensions with size one. With this option, the result will broadcast correctly against the input array.

    If the default value is passed, then keepdims will not be passed through to the mean method of sub-classes of ndarray, however any non-default value will be. If the sub-classes sum method does not implement keepdims any exceptions will be raised.

Returns: 	

m : ndarray, see dtype parameter above

    If out=None, returns a new array containing the mean values, otherwise a reference to the output array is returned.

keepdims : bool, optional

如果将其设置为True，则缩小的轴将作为尺寸为1的尺寸保留在结果中，例如（axes=1，keepdims=True）就是.reshape（-1，1）。 使用此选项，结果将针对输入数组正确广播。

如果传递了默认值，则keepdims将不会传递给ndarray的子类的mean方法，但是任何非默认值都将是。 如果子类sum方法没有实现keepdims，则会引发任何异常。
