numpy.from_dlpack#
- numpy.from_dlpack(x,/,*,device=None,copy=None)#
Create a NumPy array from an object implementing the
__dlpack__protocol. Generally, the returned NumPy array is a view of the inputobject. See[1] and[2] for more details.- Parameters:
- xobject
A Python object that implements the
__dlpack__and__dlpack_device__methods.- devicedevice, optional
Device on which to place the created array. Default:
None.Must be"cpu"if passed which may allow importing an arraythat is not already CPU available.- copybool, optional
Boolean indicating whether or not to copy the input. If
True,the copy will be made. IfFalse, the function will never copy,and will raiseBufferErrorin case a copy is deemed necessary.Passing it requests a copy from the exporter who may or may notimplement the capability.IfNone, the function will reuse the existing memory buffer ifpossible and copy otherwise. Default:None.
- Returns:
- outndarray
