numpy.shares_memory¶
- numpy.shares_memory(a, b, max_work=None)¶
Determine if two arrays share memory
Parameters: a, b : ndarray
Input arrays
max_work : int, optional
Effort to spend on solving the overlap problem (maximum number of candidate solutions to consider). The following special values are recognized:
- max_work=MAY_SHARE_EXACT (default)
The problem is solved exactly. In this case, the function returns True only if there is an element shared between the arrays.
- max_work=MAY_SHARE_BOUNDS
Only the memory bounds of a and b are checked.
Returns: out : bool
Raises: numpy.TooHardError
Exceeded max_work.
