I would like to append a value at the end of my numpy.array
.
I saw numpy.append
function but this performs an exact copy of the original array adding at last my new value. I would like to avoid copies since my arrays are big.
I am using resize
method and then set the last index available to the new value.
Can you conf开发者_开发知识库irm that resize
is the best way to append a value at the end?
Is it not moving memory around someway?
oldSize = myArray,shape(0)
myArray.resize( oldSize + 1 )
myArray[oldSize] = newValue
My simple timing experiment of append vs. resizing showed that resizing is about 3x faster and its the fastest way that I can think of to do this. Also, the answer to this question seems to imply that resizing the array is the way to go because it is in-place.
Verdict: Use resize
