the output layout, computed with the previous logical table.

xcontainer

Defined in xtensor/xcontainer.hpp

template<class D>
class xcontainer : public xt::xcontiguous_iterable<D>, private xt::xaccessible<D>

The xcontainer class defines the interface for dense multidimensional container classes. It does not embed any data container, this responsibility is delegated to the inheriting classes.

Template Parameters:

D – The derived type, i.e. the inheriting class for which xcontainer provides the interface.

Subclassed by xt::xstrided_container< xtensor_container< EC, N, L, Tag > >, xt::xstrided_container< xarray_adaptor< EC, L, SC, Tag > >, xt::xstrided_container< xarray_container< EC, L, SC, Tag > >, xt::xstrided_container< xtensor_view< EC, N, L, Tag > >, xt::xstrided_container< xtensor_adaptor< EC, N, L, Tag > >, xt::xstrided_container< D >

Warning

This method is meant for performance, for expressions with a dynamic number of dimensions (i.e. not known at compile time). Since it may have undefined behavior (see parameters), operator() should be preferred whenever it is possible.

Warning

This method is NOT compatible with broadcasting, meaning the following code has undefined behavior:

xt::xarray<double> a = {{0, 1}, {2, 3}};
xt::xarray<double> b = {0, 1};
auto fd = a + b;
double res = fd.uncheked(0, 1);

Parameters:

args – a list of indices specifying the position in the container. Indices must be unsigned integers, the number of indices must be equal to the number of dimensions of the container, else the behavior is undefined.

Broadcasting

template<class S>
inline auto &reshape(S &&shape, layout_type layout) &

Reshapes the container and keeps old elements.

The shape argument can have one of its value equal to -1, in this case the value is inferred from the number of elements in the container and the remaining values in the shape.

a.reshape({-1, 4});
//a.shape() is {2, 4}

Parameters:
  • shape – the new shape (has to have same number of elements as the original container)

  • layout – the layout to compute the strides (defaults to static layout of the container, or for a container with dynamic layout to XTENSOR_DEFAULT_LAYOUT)
