numpy.ma.MaskedArray class
is a subclass of ndarray designed to manipulate numerical arrays with missing data. With the help of Numpy MaskedArray.__sub__ we can subtract a particular value that is provided as a parameter in the MaskedArray.__sub__() method. Value will be subtracted from each and every element in a numpy array.
Syntax: numpy.MaskedArray.__sub__ Return: Subtract others from self, and return a new masked array.Example #1 : In this example we can see that each and every element in an array is subtracted with the value given as a parameter in method MaskedArray.__sub__(). Remember one thing it wouldn’t work for double type values.
# import the important module in python
import numpy as np
# make an array with numpy
gfg = np.ma.array([11, 22, 23, 24, 25])
# applying MaskedArray.__sub__() method
print(gfg.__sub__(5))
Output:
Example #2:
[ 6 17 18 19 20]
# import the important module in python
import numpy as np
# make an array with numpy
gfg = np.ma.array([[21, 22, 23, 24, 25],
[26, 25, 24, 23, 22]])
# applying MaskedArray.__sub__() method
print(gfg.__sub__(5))
Output:
[[16 17 18 19 20] [21 20 19 18 17]]
