numpy.multiply¶
- numpy.multiply(x1, x2[, out]) = <ufunc 'multiply'>¶
Multiply arguments element-wise.
Parameters: x1, x2 : array_like
Input arrays to be multiplied.
Returns: y : ndarray
The product of x1 and x2, element-wise. Returns a scalar if both x1 and x2 are scalars.
Notes
Equivalent to x1 * x2 in terms of array broadcasting.
Examples
>>> np.multiply(2.0, 4.0) 8.0
>>> x1 = np.arange(9.0).reshape((3, 3)) >>> x2 = np.arange(3.0) >>> np.multiply(x1, x2) array([[ 0., 1., 4.], [ 0., 4., 10.], [ 0., 7., 16.]])
