numpy.matrix¶

classnumpy.matrix[source]¶

Returns a matrix from an array-like object, or from a string of data.A matrix is a specialized 2-D array that retains its 2-D naturethrough operations. It has certain special operators, such as*(matrix multiplication) and** (matrix power).

Parameters:	data : array_like or string Ifdata is a string, it is interpreted as a matrix with commasor spaces separating columns, and semicolons separating rows. dtype : data-type Data-type of the output matrix. copy : bool Ifdata is already anndarray, then this flag determineswhether the data is copied (the default), or whether a view isconstructed.

Examples

>>>a=np.matrix('1 2; 3 4')>>>print(a)[[1 2] [3 4]]

>>>np.matrix([[1,2],[3,4]])matrix([[1, 2],        [3, 4]])
