dpnp.asanyarray

dpnp.asanyarray(a, dtype=None, order=None, *, like=None, device=None, usm_type=None, sycl_queue=None)

Convert the input to an dpnp.ndarray.

For full documentation refer to numpy.asanyarray.

Parameters:

aarray_like

Input data, in any form that can be converted to an array. This includes scalars, lists, lists of tuples, tuples, tuples of tuples, tuples of lists, and ndarrays.

dtype{None, str, dtype object}, optional

The desired dtype for the array. If not given, a default dtype will be used that can represent the values (by considering Promotion Type Rule and device capabilities when necessary).

Default: None.

order{None, "C", "F", "A", "K"}, optional

Memory layout of the newly output array.

Default: "K".

device{None, string, SyclDevice, SyclQueue, Device}, optional

An array API concept of device where the output array is created. device can be None, a oneAPI filter selector string, an instance of dpctl.SyclDevice corresponding to a non-partitioned SYCL device, an instance of dpctl.SyclQueue, or a dpnp.tensor.Device object returned by dpnp.ndarray.device.

Default: None.

usm_type{None, "device", "shared", "host"}, optional

The type of SYCL USM allocation for the output array.

Default: None.

sycl_queue{None, SyclQueue}, optional

A SYCL queue to use for output array allocation and copying. The sycl_queue can be passed as None (the default), which means to get the SYCL queue from device keyword if present or to use a default queue.

Default: None.

Returns:

outdpnp.ndarray

Array interpretation of a.

Limitations

Parameter like is supported only with default value None. Otherwise, the function raises NotImplementedError exception.

Examples

>>> import dpnp as np
>>> np.asanyarray([1, 2, 3])
array([1, 2, 3])

Creating an array on a different device or with a specified usm_type

>>> x = np.asanyarray([1, 2, 3]) # default case
>>> x, x.device, x.usm_type
(array([1, 2, 3]), Device(level_zero:gpu:0), 'device')

>>> y = np.asanyarray([1, 2, 3], device="cpu")
>>> y, y.device, y.usm_type
(array([1, 2, 3]), Device(opencl:cpu:0), 'device')

>>> z = np.asanyarray([1, 2, 3], usm_type="host")
>>> z, z.device, z.usm_type
(array([1, 2, 3]), Device(level_zero:gpu:0), 'host')
