Python | Numpy getmaskarray() method

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

Syntax : numpy.getmaskarray(array)

Return : Return masked values in the form of numpy array.

Example #1 :
In this example we can see that by using numpy.getmaskarray() method, we are able to get the masked matrix in the form of numpy array.

# import numpy
import numpy.ma as ma

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

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

Output :

array([[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.getmaskarray() method
print(ma.getmaskarray(gfg))

Output :

array([False True False False False])
