`numpy.matlib:zeros`

Signature

def zeros(shape, dtype = None, order = C)

Return a matrix of given shape and type, filled with zeros.

shape : int or sequence of ints: Shape of the matrix
dtype : data-type, optional: The desired data-type for the matrix, default is float.
order : {'C', 'F'}, optional: Whether to store the result in C- or Fortran-contiguous order, default is 'C'.

If shape has length one i.e. (N,), or is a scalar N, out becomes a single row matrix of shape (1,N).
