Thank you all for the answer. Below, i have pasted a sample code that shows what i am intending to do. The code fails at line 13 as numpy array dnt have a index attribute.
1 #!/usr/bin/env python 2 import numpy as np 3 4 a=np.array([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]) 5 6 b=np.reshape(a,(3,4)) 7 8 z=[100,101,102,103,104,106,107,108,109,110,111,112] 9 10 # loop over each row 11 for i1, d1 in enumerate(b): 12 # each x in d1 - value in z corresponding to index of x in d1 13 d1=[x-z[d1.index(x)] for x in d1] If d1 is a simple list, i can fetch the index of its element as d1.index(x). So i would like to know how can achieve the same with numpy array.
