dpnp.result_type

dpnp.result_type(*arrays_and_dtypes)[source]

Returns the type that results from applying the NumPy type promotion rules to the arguments.

For full documentation refer to numpy.result_type.

Parameters:: arrays_and_dtypes (list of {dpnp.ndarray, usm_ndarray, dtype}) – An arbitrary length sequence of arrays or dtypes.
Returns:: out – The result type.
Return type:: dtype

Examples

>>> import dpnp as dp
>>> a = dp.arange(3, dtype=dp.int64)
>>> b = dp.arange(7, dtype=dp.int32)
>>> dp.result_type(a, b)
dtype('int64')

>>> dp.result_type(dp.int64, dp.complex128)
dtype('complex128')

>>> dp.result_type(dp.ones(10, dtype=dp.float32), dp.float64)
dtype('float64')
