dpnp.searchsorted

dpnp.searchsorted(a, v, side='left', sorter=None)[source]

Find indices where elements should be inserted to maintain order.

For full documentation refer to numpy.searchsorted.

Parameters:
  • a ({dpnp.ndarray, usm_ndarray}) -- Input 1-D array. If sorter is None, then it must be sorted in ascending order, otherwise sorter must be an array of indices that sort it.

  • v ({dpnp.ndarray, usm_ndarray, scalar}) -- Values to insert into a.

  • side ({'left', 'right'}, optional) -- If 'left', the index of the first suitable location found is given. If 'right', return the last such index. If there is no suitable index, return either 0 or N (where N is the length of a). Default is 'left'.

  • sorter ({dpnp.ndarray, usm_ndarray}, optional) -- Optional 1-D array of integer indices that sort array a into ascending order. They are typically the result of dpnp.argsort. Out of bound index values of sorter array are treated using "wrap" mode documented in dpnp.take(). Default is None.

Returns:

indices -- Array of insertion points with the same shape as v, or 0-D array if v is a scalar.

Return type:

dpnp.ndarray

Examples

>>> import dpnp as np
>>> a = np.array([11,12,13,14,15])
>>> np.searchsorted(a, 13)
array(2)
>>> np.searchsorted(a, 13, side='right')
array(3)
>>> v = np.array([-10, 20, 12, 13])
>>> np.searchsorted(a, v)
array([0, 5, 1, 2])
