numpy.ma.masked_array.copy¶

masked_array.copy(order='C')[source]¶

Return a copy of the array.

Parameters:	order : {‘C’, ‘F’, ‘A’, ‘K’}, optional Controls the memory layout of the copy. ‘C’ means C-order,‘F’ means F-order, ‘A’ means ‘F’ ifa is Fortran contiguous,‘C’ otherwise. ‘K’ means match the layout ofa as closelyas possible. (Note that this function and :func:numpy.copy are verysimilar, but have different default values for their order=arguments.)
