`scipy.signal._arraytools:const_ext`

source: /scipy/signal/_arraytools.py:160

Signature

def const_ext(x, n, axis = -1)

Summary

Constant extension at the boundaries of an array

Extended Summary

Generate a new ndarray that is a constant extension of x along an axis.

The extension repeats the values at the first and last element of the axis.

Parameters

x : ndarray: The array to be extended.
n : int: The number of elements by which to extend x at each end of the axis.
axis : int, optional: The axis along which to extend x. Default is -1.

Examples

import numpy as np
from scipy.signal._arraytools import const_ext
a = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [0, 1, 4, 9, 16]])
const_ext(a, 2)

✓

Constant extension continues with the same values as the endpoints of the array:

t = np.linspace(0, 1.5, 100)
a = 0.9 * np.sin(2 * np.pi * t**2)
b = const_ext(a, 40)
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

✓

plt.plot(np.arange(-40, 140), b, 'b', lw=1, label='constant extension')
plt.plot(np.arange(100), a, 'r', lw=2, label='original')
plt.legend(loc='best')

✗

plt.show()
