function

`numpy.ma.core:argmin`

source: build-install/usr/lib/python3.14/site-packages/numpy/ma/core.py :7063

Summary

Return array of indices to the minimum values along the given axis.

Parameters

axis : {None, integer}: If None, the index is into the flattened array, otherwise along the specified axis
fill_value : scalar or None, optional: Value used to fill in the masked values. If None, the output of minimum_fill_value(self._data) is used instead.
out : {None, array}, optional: Array into which the result can be placed. Its type is preserved and it must be of the right shape to hold the output.

Returns

: ndarray or scalar: If multi-dimension input, returns a new ndarray of indices to the minimum values along the given axis. Otherwise, returns a scalar of index to the minimum values along the given axis.

Examples

import numpy as np
x = np.ma.array(np.arange(4), mask=[1,1,0,0])
x.shape = (2,2)
x
x.argmin(axis=0, fill_value=-1)
x.argmin(axis=0, fill_value=9)
