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([ 59,  31,  37, 113], 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([[  2, 150, 171],
      [108,  97, 230]], order=3^5)
  
  In [5]: x.shape
  Out[5]: (2, 3)
  
  In [6]: x = GF.Random([2, 3, 4]); x
  Out[6]: 
  GF([[[156,  55, 115, 150],
       [174, 115, 155, 130],
       [ 53, 105, 229, 242]],
  
      [[217, 140,  85, 141],
       [195, 225,  10, 102],
       [ 47,  90, 116, 221]]], order=3^5)
  
  In [7]: x.shape
  Out[7]: (2, 3, 4)
  
  In [8]: x = GF.Random(()); x
  Out[8]: GF(20, order=3^5)
  
  In [9]: x.shape
  Out[9]: ()
