numpy.tri() in Python
The tri() function of Python numpy class returns an array with ones at and below the given diagonal(k value) and zeros elsewhere.
Syntax
numpy.tri(N, M=None, k=0, dtype=<class 'float'>)
Parameter
R : It represents the number of rows
C : This parameter represents the number of columns. It is an optional parameter and, by default R = C
k: This parameter represents the Diagonal we require. It is an optional integer parameter, and its default value is 0. If k>0, it means the diagonal is above the main diagonal or vice versa.
dtype : It represents the data type of returned array.
Return
This function returns an array with its lower triangle filled with ones and zero elsewhere(T[i,j] == 1 for i <= j + k, 0 otherwise).
Example 1
# Python Program explaining
# numpy.tri() function
import numpy as np
print("\ntri() with diagonal value: 1 : \n",np.tri(4, 2, 1, dtype = float))
print("\ntri with main diagonal: 0 \n",np.tri(5, 3, 0))
print("\ntri with diagonal: -1 : \n",np.tri(5, 3, -1))Output
tri() with diagonal value: 1 :
[[ 1. 1.]
[ 1. 1.]
[ 1. 1.]
[ 1. 1.]]
tri with main diagonal: 0
[[ 1. 0. 0.]
[ 1. 1. 0.]
[ 1. 1. 1.]
[ 1. 1. 1.]
[ 1. 1. 1.]]
tri with diagonal: -1 :
[[ 0. 0. 0.]
[ 1. 0. 0.]
[ 1. 1. 0.]
[ 1. 1. 1.]
[ 1. 1. 1.]]
