mpi_array.globale_creation.asarray¶

mpi_array.globale_creation.asarray(a, dtype=None, order=None, **kwargs)[source]¶

Converts a (potentially via a copy) to a mpi_array.globale.gndarray. The kwargs are as for the mpi_array.comms.create_distributon() function and determine the distribution for the returned mpi_array.globale.gndarray.

Parameters:	a (scalar, `tuple`, `list`, `numpy.ndarray`, etc) – Object converted to a `mpi_array.globale.gndarray`. dtype (`numpy.dtype`) – The `numpy.dtype` for the returned `mpi_array.globale.gndarray`. order (`'C', 'F'`) – Only `'C'` implemented. Whether to store multi-dimensional data in row-major (C-style) or column-major (Fortran-style) order in memory. Defaults to `'C'`.
Return type:	`mpi_array.globale.gndarray`
Returns:	The object `a` converted to an instance of `mpi_array.globale.gndarray`.
