dpnp.isdtype(dtype, kind)[source]¶

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

Parameters:

dtypedtype

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:

outbool: A boolean indicating whether a provided dtype is of a specified data type kind.

>>> import dpnp as np
>>> np.isdtype(np.float32, np.float64)
False
>>> np.isdtype(np.float32, "real floating")
True
>>> np.isdtype(np.complex128, ("real floating", "complex floating"))
True
