.. index: ufunc, universal function, arithmetic, operation

A universal function (or :term:`ufunc` for short) is a function that
operates on :class:`ndarrays <ndarray>` in an element-by-element fashion,
supporting :ref:`array broadcasting <ufuncs.broadcasting>`, :ref:`type
casting <ufuncs.casting>`, and several other standard features. That
is, a ufunc is a ":term:`vectorized <vectorization>`" wrapper for a function that
takes a fixed number of specific inputs and produces a fixed number of
specific outputs.

In NumPy, universal functions are instances of the
:class:`numpy.ufunc` class. Many of the built-in functions are
implemented in compiled C code. The basic ufuncs operate on scalars, but
there is also a generalized kind for which the basic elements are sub-arrays
(vectors, matrices, etc.), and broadcasting is done over other dimensions.
One can also produce custom :class:`ufunc` instances using the
:func:`frompyfunc` factory function.


.. _ufuncs.broadcasting:

Broadcasting
============

.. index:: broadcasting

Each universal function takes array inputs and produces array outputs
by performing the core function element-wise on the inputs (where an
element is generally a scalar, but can be a vector or higher-order
sub-array for generalized ufuncs). Standard
broadcasting rules are applied so that inputs not sharing exactly the
same shapes can still be usefully operated on. Broadcasting can be
understood by four rules:

1. All input arrays with :attr:`ndim <ndarray.ndim>` smaller than the
   input array of largest :attr:`ndim <ndarray.ndim>`, have 1's
   prepended to their shapes.

2. The size in each dimension of the output shape is the maximum of all
   the input sizes in that dimension.

3. An input can be used in the calculation if its size in a particular
   dimension either matches the output size in that dimension, or has
   value exactly 1.

4. If an input has a dimension size of 1 in its shape, the first data
   entry in that dimension will be used for all calculations along
   that dimension. In other words, the stepping machinery of the
   :term:`ufunc` will simply not step along that dimension (the
   :ref:`stride <memory-layout>` will be 0 for that dimension).

Broadcasting is used throughout NumPy to decide how to handle
disparately shaped arrays; for example, all arithmetic operations (``+``,
``-``, ``*``, ...) between :class:`ndarrays <ndarray>` broadcast the
arrays before operation.

.. _arrays.broadcasting.broadcastable:

.. index:: broadcastable

A set of arrays is called "broadcastable" to the same shape if
the above rules produce a valid result, *i.e.*, one of the following
is true:

1. The arrays all have exactly the same shape.

2. The arrays all have the same number of dimensions and the length of
   each dimensions is either a common length or 1.

3. The arrays that have too few dimensions can have their shapes prepended
   with a dimension of length 1 to satisfy property 2.

.. admonition:: Example

   If ``a.shape`` is (5,1), ``b.shape`` is (1,6), ``c.shape`` is (6,)
   and ``d.shape`` is () so that *d* is a scalar, then *a*, *b*, *c*,
   and *d* are all broadcastable to dimension (5,6); and

   - *a* acts like a (5,6) array where ``a[:,0]`` is broadcast to the other
     columns,

   - *b* acts like a (5,6) array where ``b[0,:]`` is broadcast
     to the other rows,

   - *c* acts like a (1,6) array and therefore like a (5,6) array
     where ``c[:]`` is broadcast to every row, and finally,

   - *d* acts like a (5,6) array where the single value is repeated.


.. _ufuncs-output-type:

Output type determination
=========================

The output of the ufunc (and its methods) is not necessarily an
:class:`ndarray`, if all input arguments are not :class:`ndarrays <ndarray>`.
Indeed, if any input defines an :obj:`~class.__array_ufunc__` method,
control will be passed completely to that function, i.e., the ufunc is
:ref:`overridden <ufuncs.overrides>`.

If none of the inputs overrides the ufunc, then
all output arrays will be passed to the :obj:`~class.__array_prepare__` and
:obj:`~class.__array_wrap__` methods of the input (besides
:class:`ndarrays <ndarray>`, and scalars) that defines it **and** has
the highest :obj:`~class.__array_priority__` of any other input to the
universal function. The default :obj:`~class.__array_priority__` of the
ndarray is 0.0, and the default :obj:`~class.__array_priority__` of a subtype
is 0.0. Matrices have :obj:`~class.__array_priority__` equal to 10.0.

All ufuncs can also take output arguments. If necessary, output will
be cast to the data-type(s) of the provided output array(s). If a class
with an :obj:`~class.__array__` method is used for the output, results will be
written to the object returned by :obj:`~class.__array__`. Then, if the class
also has an :obj:`~class.__array_prepare__` method, it is called so metadata
may be determined based on the context of the ufunc (the context
consisting of the ufunc itself, the arguments passed to the ufunc, and
the ufunc domain.) The array object returned by
:obj:`~class.__array_prepare__` is passed to the ufunc for computation.
Finally, if the class also has an :obj:`~class.__array_wrap__` method, the returned
:class:`ndarray` result will be passed to that method just before
passing control back to the caller.

Use of internal buffers
=======================

.. index:: buffers

Internally, buffers are used for misaligned data, swapped data, and
data that has to be converted from one data type to another. The size
of internal buffers is settable on a per-thread basis. There can
be up to :math:`2 (n_{\mathrm{inputs}} + n_{\mathrm{outputs}})`
buffers of the specified size created to handle the data from all the
inputs and outputs of a ufunc. The default size of a buffer is
10,000 elements. Whenever buffer-based calculation would be needed,
but all input arrays are smaller than the buffer size, those
misbehaved or incorrectly-typed arrays will be copied before the
calculation proceeds. Adjusting the size of the buffer may therefore
alter the speed at which ufunc calculations of various sorts are
completed. A simple interface for setting this variable is accessible
using the function

.. autosummary::
   :toctree: generated/

   setbufsize


Error handling
==============

.. index:: error handling

Universal functions can trip special floating-point status registers
in your hardware (such as divide-by-zero). If available on your
platform, these registers will be regularly checked during
calculation. Error handling is controlled on a per-thread basis,
and can be configured using the functions

.. autosummary::
   :toctree: generated/

   seterr
   seterrcall

.. _ufuncs.casting:

Casting Rules
=============

.. index::
   pair: ufunc; casting rules

.. note::

   In NumPy 1.6.0, a type promotion API was created to encapsulate the
   mechanism for determining output types. See the functions
   :func:`result_type`, :func:`promote_types`, and
   :func:`min_scalar_type` for more details.

At the core of every ufunc is a one-dimensional strided loop that
implements the actual function for a specific type combination. When a
ufunc is created, it is given a static list of inner loops and a
corresponding list of type signatures over which the ufunc operates.
The ufunc machinery uses this list to determine which inner loop to
use for a particular case. You can inspect the :attr:`.types
<ufunc.types>` attribute for a particular ufunc to see which type
combinations have a defined inner loop and which output type they
produce (:ref:`character codes <arrays.scalars.character-codes>` are used
in said output for brevity).

Casting must be done on one or more of the inputs whenever the ufunc
does not have a core loop implementation for the input types provided.
If an implementation for the input types cannot be found, then the
algorithm searches for an implementation with a type signature to
which all of the inputs can be cast "safely." The first one it finds
in its internal list of loops is selected and performed, after all
necessary type casting. Recall that internal copies during ufuncs (even
for casting) are limited to the size of an internal buffer (which is user
settable).

.. note::

    Universal functions in NumPy are flexible enough to have mixed type
    signatures. Thus, for example, a universal function could be defined
    that works with floating-point and integer values. See :func:`ldexp`
    for an example.

By the above description, the casting rules are essentially
implemented by the question of when a data type can be cast "safely"
to another data type. The answer to this question can be determined in
Python with a function call: :func:`can_cast(fromtype, totype)
<can_cast>`. The Figure below shows the results of this call for
the 24 internally supported types on the author's 64-bit system. You
can generate this table for your system with the code given in the Figure.

You should note that, while included in the table for completeness,
the 'S', 'U', and 'V' types cannot be operated on by ufuncs. Also,
note that on a 32-bit system the integer types may have different
sizes, resulting in a slightly altered table.

Mixed scalar-array operations use a different set of casting rules
that ensure that a scalar cannot "upcast" an array unless the scalar is
of a fundamentally different kind of data (*i.e.*, under a different
hierarchy in the data-type hierarchy) than the array.  This rule
enables you to use scalar constants in your code (which, as Python
types, are interpreted accordingly in ufuncs) without worrying about
whether the precision of the scalar constant will cause upcasting on
your large (small precision) array.


.. _ufuncs.overrides:

Overriding Ufunc behavior
=========================

Classes (including ndarray subclasses) can override how ufuncs act on
them by defining certain special methods.  For details, see
:ref:`arrays.classes`.


:class:`ufunc`
==============

.. autosummary::
   :toctree: generated/

   numpy.ufunc

.. _ufuncs.kwargs:

Optional keyword arguments
--------------------------

All ufuncs take optional keyword arguments. Most of these represent
advanced usage and will not typically be used.

.. index::
   pair: ufunc; keyword arguments

*out*

    .. versionadded:: 1.6

    The first output can be provided as either a positional or a keyword
    parameter. Keyword 'out' arguments are incompatible with positional
    ones.

    .. versionadded:: 1.10

    The 'out' keyword argument is expected to be a tuple with one entry per
    output (which can be None for arrays to be allocated by the ufunc).
    For ufuncs with a single output, passing a single array (instead of a
    tuple holding a single array) is also valid.

    Passing a single array in the 'out' keyword argument to a ufunc with
    multiple outputs is deprecated, and will raise a warning in numpy 1.10,
    and an error in a future release.

    If 'out' is None (the default), a uninitialized return array is created.
    The output array is then filled with the results of the ufunc in the places
    that the broadcast 'where' is True. If 'where' is the scalar True (the
    default), then this corresponds to the entire output being filled.
    Note that outputs not explicitly filled are left with their
    uninitialized values.

    .. versionadded:: 1.13

    Operations where ufunc input and output operands have memory overlap are
    defined to be the same as for equivalent operations where there
    is no memory overlap.  Operations affected make temporary copies
    as needed to eliminate data dependency.  As detecting these cases
    is computationally expensive, a heuristic is used, which may in rare
    cases result in needless temporary copies.  For operations where the
    data dependency is simple enough for the heuristic to analyze,
    temporary copies will not be made even if the arrays overlap, if it
    can be deduced copies are not necessary.  As an example,
    ``np.add(a, b, out=a)`` will not involve copies.

*where*

    .. versionadded:: 1.7

    Accepts a boolean array which is broadcast together with the operands.
    Values of True indicate to calculate the ufunc at that position, values
    of False indicate to leave the value in the output alone. This argument
    cannot be used for generalized ufuncs as those take non-scalar input.

    Note that if an uninitialized return array is created, values of False
    will leave those values **uninitialized**.

*axes*

    .. versionadded:: 1.15

    A list of tuples with indices of axes a generalized ufunc should operate
    on. For instance, for a signature of ``(i,j),(j,k)->(i,k)`` appropriate
    for matrix multiplication, the base elements are two-dimensional matrices
    and these are taken to be stored in the two last axes of each argument.
    The corresponding axes keyword would be ``[(-2, -1), (-2, -1), (-2, -1)]``.
    For simplicity, for generalized ufuncs that operate on 1-dimensional arrays
    (vectors), a single integer is accepted instead of a single-element tuple,
    and for generalized ufuncs for which all outputs are scalars, the output
    tuples can be omitted.

*axis*

    .. versionadded:: 1.15

    A single axis over which a generalized ufunc should operate. This is a
    short-cut for ufuncs that operate over a single, shared core dimension,
    equivalent to passing in ``axes`` with entries of ``(axis,)`` for each
    single-core-dimension argument and ``()`` for all others.  For instance,
    for a signature ``(i),(i)->()``, it is equivalent to passing in
    ``axes=[(axis,), (axis,), ()]``.

*keepdims*

    .. versionadded:: 1.15

    If this is set to `True`, axes which are reduced over will be left in the
    result as a dimension with size one, so that the result will broadcast
    correctly against the inputs. This option can only be used for generalized
    ufuncs that operate on inputs that all have the same number of core
    dimensions and with outputs that have no core dimensions, i.e., with
    signatures like ``(i),(i)->()`` or ``(m,m)->()``. If used, the location of
    the dimensions in the output can be controlled with ``axes`` and ``axis``.

*casting*

    .. versionadded:: 1.6

    May be 'no', 'equiv', 'safe', 'same_kind', or 'unsafe'.
    See :func:`can_cast` for explanations of the parameter values.

    Provides a policy for what kind of casting is permitted. For compatibility
    with previous versions of NumPy, this defaults to 'unsafe' for numpy < 1.7.
    In numpy 1.7 a transition to 'same_kind' was begun where ufuncs produce a
    DeprecationWarning for calls which are allowed under the 'unsafe'
    rules, but not under the 'same_kind' rules. From numpy 1.10 and
    onwards, the default is 'same_kind'.

*order*

    .. versionadded:: 1.6

    Specifies the calculation iteration order/memory layout of the output array.
    Defaults to 'K'. 'C' means the output should be C-contiguous, 'F' means
    F-contiguous, 'A' means F-contiguous if the inputs are F-contiguous and
    not also not C-contiguous, C-contiguous otherwise, and 'K' means to match
    the element ordering of the inputs as closely as possible.

*dtype*

    .. versionadded:: 1.6

    Overrides the dtype of the calculation and output arrays. Similar to
    *signature*.

*subok*

    .. versionadded:: 1.6

    Defaults to true. If set to false, the output will always be a strict
    array, not a subtype.

*signature*

    Either a data-type, a tuple of data-types, or a special signature
    string indicating the input and output types of a ufunc. This argument
    allows you to provide a specific signature for the 1-d loop to use
    in the underlying calculation. If the loop specified does not exist
    for the ufunc, then a TypeError is raised. Normally, a suitable loop is
    found automatically by comparing the input types with what is
    available and searching for a loop with data-types to which all inputs
    can be cast safely. This keyword argument lets you bypass that
    search and choose a particular loop. A list of available signatures is
    provided by the **types** attribute of the ufunc object. For backwards
    compatibility this argument can also be provided as *sig*, although
    the long form is preferred. Note that this should not be confused with
    the generalized ufunc :ref:`signature <details-of-signature>` that is
    stored in the **signature** attribute of the of the ufunc object.

*extobj*

    a list of length 3 specifying the ufunc buffer-size, the error
    mode integer, and the error call-back function. Normally, these
    values are looked up in a thread-specific dictionary. Passing them
    here circumvents that look up and uses the low-level specification
    provided for the error mode. This may be useful, for example, as
    an optimization for calculations requiring many ufunc calls on
    small arrays in a loop.



Attributes
----------

There are some informational attributes that universal functions
possess. None of the attributes can be set.

.. index::
   pair: ufunc; attributes


============  =================================================================
**__doc__**   A docstring for each ufunc. The first part of the docstring is
              dynamically generated from the number of outputs, the name, and
              the number of inputs. The second part of the docstring is
              provided at creation time and stored with the ufunc.

**__name__**  The name of the ufunc.

.. _ufuncs.methods:

Methods
-------

All ufuncs have four methods. However, these methods only make sense on scalar
ufuncs that take two input arguments and return one output argument.
Attempting to call these methods on other ufuncs will cause a
:exc:`ValueError`. The reduce-like methods all take an *axis* keyword, a *dtype*
keyword, and an *out* keyword, and the arrays must all have dimension >= 1.
The *axis* keyword specifies the axis of the array over which the reduction
will take place (with negative values counting backwards). Generally, it is an
integer, though for :meth:`ufunc.reduce`, it can also be a tuple of `int` to
reduce over several axes at once, or None, to reduce over all axes.
The *dtype* keyword allows you to manage a very common problem that arises
when naively using :meth:`ufunc.reduce`. Sometimes you may
have an array of a certain data type and wish to add up all of its
elements, but the result does not fit into the data type of the
array. This commonly happens if you have an array of single-byte
integers. The *dtype* keyword allows you to alter the data type over which
the reduction takes place (and therefore the type of the output). Thus,
you can ensure that the output is a data type with precision large enough
to handle your output. The responsibility of altering the reduce type is
mostly up to you. There is one exception: if no *dtype* is given for a
reduction on the "add" or "multiply" operations, then if the input type is
an integer (or Boolean) data-type and smaller than the size of the
:class:`int_` data type, it will be internally upcast to the :class:`int_`
(or :class:`uint`) data-type. Finally, the *out* keyword allows you to provide
an output array (for single-output ufuncs, which are currently the only ones
supported; for future extension, however, a tuple with a single argument
can be passed in). If *out* is given, the *dtype* argument is ignored.

Ufuncs also have a fifth method that allows in place operations to be
performed using fancy indexing. No buffering is used on the dimensions where
fancy indexing is used, so the fancy index can list an item more than once and
the operation will be performed on the result of the previous operation for
that item.

.. autosummary::
   :toctree: generated/

   ufunc.reduce
   ufunc.accumulate
   ufunc.reduceat
   ufunc.outer
   ufunc.at


.. warning::

    A reduce-like operation on an array with a data-type that has a
    range "too small" to handle the result will silently wrap. One
    should use `dtype` to increase the size of the data-type over which
    reduction takes place.


Available ufuncs
================

There are currently more than 60 universal functions defined in
:mod:`numpy` on one or more types, covering a wide variety of
operations. Some of these ufuncs are called automatically on arrays
when the relevant infix notation is used (*e.g.*, :func:`add(a, b) <add>`
is called internally when ``a + b`` is written and *a* or *b* is an
:class:`ndarray`). Nevertheless, you may still want to use the ufunc
call in order to use the optional output argument(s) to place the
output(s) in an object (or objects) of your choice.

Recall that each ufunc operates element-by-element. Therefore, each scalar
ufunc will be described as if acting on a set of scalar inputs to
return a set of scalar outputs.

.. note::

    The ufunc still returns its output(s) even if you use the optional
    output argument(s).

.. tip::

    The optional output arguments can be used to help you save memory
    for large calculations. If your arrays are large, complicated
    expressions can take longer than absolutely necessary due to the
    creation and (later) destruction of temporary calculation
    spaces. For example, the expression ``G = a * b + c`` is equivalent to
    ``t1 = A * B; G = T1 + C; del t1``. It will be more quickly executed
    as ``G = A * B; add(G, C, G)`` which is the same as
    ``G = A * B; G += C``.

.. tip::

    The Python function ``max()`` will find the maximum over a one-dimensional
    array, but it will do so using a slower sequence interface. The reduce
    method of the maximum ufunc is much faster. Also, the ``max()`` method
    will not give answers you might expect for arrays with greater than
    one dimension. The reduce method of minimum also allows you to compute
    a total minimum over an array.

    minimum

.. warning::

    the behavior of ``maximum(a, b)`` is different than that of ``max(a, b)``.
    As a ufunc, ``maximum(a, b)`` performs an element-by-element comparison
    of `a` and `b` and chooses each element of the result according to which
    element in the two arrays is larger. In contrast, ``max(a, b)`` treats
    the objects `a` and `b` as a whole, looks at the (total) truth value of
    ``a > b`` and uses it to return either `a` or `b` (as a whole). A similar
    difference exists between ``minimum(a, b)`` and ``min(a, b)``.

Floating functions
------------------

Recall that all of these functions work element-by-element over an
array, returning an array output. The description details only a
single operation.
