zeros

Create a zero-filled ndarray having a specified shape and data type.

Usage

var zeros = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/base/zeros' );

zeros( dtype, shape, order )

Creates a zero-filled ndarray having a specified shape and data type.

var arr = zeros( 'float64', [ 2, 2 ], 'row-major' );
// returns <ndarray>

var sh = arr.shape;
// returns [ 2, 2 ]

var dt = arr.dtype;
// returns 'float64'

The function accepts the following arguments:

dtype: underlying data type.
shape: array shape.
order: specifies whether an ndarray is 'row-major' (C-style) or 'column-major' (Fortran-style).

Examples

var dtypes = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/dtypes' );
var zeros = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/base/zeros' );

// Get a list of data types:
var dt = dtypes();

// Generate zero-filled arrays...
var arr;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < dt.length; i++ ) {
    arr = zeros( dt[ i ], [ 2, 2 ], 'row-major' );
    console.log( arr.data );
}
