numpy.ma.MaskedArray.tostring¶
- MaskedArray.tostring(fill_value=None, order='C')¶
Return a copy of array data as a Python string containing the raw bytes in the array. The array is filled beforehand.
Parameters: fill_value : {var}, optional
Value used to fill in the masked values. If None, uses self.fill_value instead.
order : {string}
Order of the data item in the copy {‘C’,’F’,’A’}. ‘C’ – C order (row major) ‘Fortran’ – Fortran order (column major) ‘Any’ – Current order of array. None – Same as “Any”
Notes
As for method:ndarray.tostring, information about the shape, dtype..., but also fill_value will be lost.
