scipy.stsci.image.threshhold

scipy.stsci.image.threshhold(arrays, low=None, high=None, outputs=None)

threshhold() computes a boolean array ‘outputs’ with corresponding elements for each element of arrays. The boolean value is true where each of the arrays values is < the low or >= the high threshholds.

>>> a=np.arange(100)
>>> a=a.reshape((10,10))
>>> (threshhold(a, 1, 50)).astype(np.int8)
