[Numpy-discussion] Computing the norm of an array of vectors

2011-02-08 Thread Ben Gamari
I have an array of (say, row) vectors, v = [ [ a1, a2, a3 ], [ b1, b2, b3 ], [ c1, c2, c3 ], ... ] What is the optimal way to compute the norm of each vector, norm(v)**2 = [ [ a1**2 + a2**2 + a3**2 ], [ b1**2 + b2**2 + b3**2 ], ... ] It see
