In this blog, I will show you how to search a specific item in an array.

Search

NumPy has a method called where to find an item in array. This method requires an expression for its parameter. Let me show you how to implement it.

First, let us create an array

import numpy as np

arr = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 2])

Then, use method where to find the index of an item in array and store it in a variable x

x = np.where(arr == 2)

Let us print the value of x to see its output

print(x)

The following is the output

(array([1, 5]),)

From the output above, you can see that 2 is occurs two times in index 1 and 5.

Congratulations, that is how you can search an item in NumPy array. Thank you for reading, and have a nice day!
