dpnp.ldexp

dpnp.ldexp(x1, x2, out=None, where=True, order='K', dtype=None, subok=True, **kwargs)

Returns x1 * 2**x2, element-wise.

The mantissas x1 and exponents of two x2 are used to construct floating point numbers x1 * 2**x2.

For full documentation refer to numpy.ldexp.

Parameters:

  • x1 ({dpnp.ndarray, usm_ndarray, scalar}) -- Array of multipliers, expected to have floating-point data types. Both inputs x1 and x2 can not be scalars at the same time.

  • x2 ({dpnp.ndarray, usm_ndarray, scalar}) -- Array of exponents of two, expected to have an integer data type. Both inputs x1 and x2 can not be scalars at the same time. If x1.shape != x2.shape, they must be broadcastable to a common shape (which becomes the shape of the output).

  • out ({None, dpnp.ndarray, usm_ndarray}, optional) -- Output array to populate. Array must have the correct shape and the expected data type. Default: None.

  • order ({"C", "F", "A", "K"}, optional) -- Memory layout of the newly output array, if parameter out is None. Default: "K".

Returns:

out -- The result of x1 * 2**x2.

Return type:

dpnp.ndarray

Limitations

Parameters where and subok are supported with their default values. Keyword argument kwargs is currently unsupported. Otherwise NotImplementedError exception will be raised.

dpnp.frexp

Return (y1, y2) from x = y1 * 2**y2, inverse to dpnp.ldexp.

Notes

Complex dtypes are not supported, they will raise a TypeError.

dpnp.ldexp is useful as the inverse of dpnp.frexp, if used by itself it is more clear to simply use the expression x1 * 2**x2.

Examples

>>> import dpnp as np
>>> np.ldexp(5, np.arange(4))
array([ 5., 10., 20., 40.])
