Assigning to columns in NumPy

Suppose that we are given a 2D numpy array with multiple rows and columns and with a 1D numpy array. What we need to do is to set a particular column value as the values of the 1D numpy array.

For example, if we are given with a 2D numpy array [[1,0],[3,0]] and a 1D array as [2,4]. We need to replace the second column with the values of array so that it becomes [[1,2],[3,4]].

For assigning to columns in NumPy, the fancy indexing of numpy will work. We need to select the arr[:, 1] to select the second column and x[:,0] for x as a single numpy array.

Let us understand with the help of an example,

Python code to assign 2D NumPy array column value as the values of the 1D array

# Import numpy
import numpy as np

# Creating a 2D numpy array
arr = np.array([[ 0.,  0.,  0.],[ 0.,  0.,  0.],[ 0.,  0.,  0.],[ 0.,  0.,  0.],[ 0.,  0.,  0.]])

# Display original array
print("Original array:\n",arr,"\n")

# Creating a 1D array
x = np.ones(5)

# Assigning second column of array with values of x
arr[:,1] = x

# Display result
print("Result:\n",arr)

Output
