Python3
# importing the module import numpy as np # created an array arr1 = np.array(['Beginner']) print("Original Array :") print(arr1) # number of times to be repeated i = 3 # using the char.multiply() method arr2 = np.char.multiply(arr1, i) print("\nNew array :") print(arr2) |
Output :
Original Array : ['Beginner'] New array : ['BeginnerBeginnerBeginner']
Example 2 : Using the method on multiple elements string array.
Python3
# importing the module import numpy as np # created an array arr1 = np.array(['Beginner', 'for', 'Beginner']) print("Original Array :") print(arr1) # number of times to be repeated i = 2 # using the char.multiply() method arr2 = np.char.multiply(arr1, i) print("\nNew array :") print(arr2) |
