A Union representing objects that can be coerced into a NumPy shape tuple.

Union¶

• int: The size of a 1-D array.

  In [1]: GF = galois.GF(3**5)
  
  In [2]: x = GF.Random(4); x
  Out[2]: GF([177, 167, 170, 121], order=3^5)
  
  In [3]: x.shape
  Out[3]: (4,)
  

• Sequence [ int ]: An iterable of integer dimensions. Tuples or lists are allowed. An empty iterable, () or [], represents a 0-D array (scalar).

  In [4]: x = GF.Random((2, 3)); x
  Out[4]: 
  GF([[ 49, 215,  42],
      [  6, 242, 190]], order=3^5)
  
  In [5]: x.shape
  Out[5]: (2, 3)
  
  In [6]: x = GF.Random([2, 3, 4]); x
  Out[6]: 
  GF([[[185, 182, 127, 158],
       [239, 118, 117, 226],
       [ 44, 125,  52, 212]],
  
      [[226, 189, 173,  81],
       [ 88, 162,  51, 129],
       [200,  59,  95,  80]]], order=3^5)
  
  In [7]: x.shape
  Out[7]: (2, 3, 4)
  
  In [8]: x = GF.Random(()); x
  Out[8]: GF(94, order=3^5)
  
  In [9]: x.shape
  Out[9]: ()
