Python | Numpy getmask() method

With the help of numpy.getmask() method, we can get the masked matrix of numpy array which shows masked values by using numpy.getmask() method.

Syntax : numpy.getmask(array)

Return : Return masked values of a matrix.

Example #1 :

In this example we can see that by using numpy.getmask() method, we are able to get the masked matrix of an array.

# import numpy
import numpy.ma as ma

gfg = ma.masked_equal([[1, 2], [5, 6]], 5)

# using numpy.getmask() method
print(ma.getmask(gfg))

Output :

[[False False]
[ True False]]

Example #2 :

# import numpy
import numpy.ma as ma

gfg = ma.masked_equal([11, 12, 13, 14, 15], 12)

# using numpy.getmask() method
print(ma.getmask(gfg))

Output :

[False True False False False]
