dpnp.isdtype

dpnp.isdtype(dtype, kind)

Returns a boolean indicating whether a provided dtype is of a specified data type kind.

Parameters:

• dtype (dtype) -- The input dtype.

• kind ({dtype, str, tuple of dtypes or strs}) --

  The input dtype or dtype kind. Allowed dtype kinds are:

  • 'bool' : boolean kind

  • 'signed integer' : signed integer data types

  • 'unsigned integer' : unsigned integer data types

  • 'integral' : integer data types

  • 'real floating' : real-valued floating-point data types

  • 'complex floating' : complex floating-point data types

  • 'numeric' : numeric data types

Returns:

out -- A boolean indicating whether a provided dtype is of a specified data type kind.

Return type:

bool
