Set numpy.ndarray values to a scalar

Question

I´ve an variable that´sa numpy array:

(Pdb) type(inFile.z)
<type 'numpy.ndarray'>
(Pdb) 
(Pdb) print inFile.z
[-0.188 -0.109 -0.02  ...,  0.373  0.356  0.385]
(Pdb)

Id´like to set all values to 20. I tried:

inFile.z[:]=20
inFile.z.fill(20)

But it doesn´t works, that is, the values reamains the same.

How can I do that?

Answer 1

Fill works. Give more background on what inFile is and/or try making sure you're libs are up to date.

In [3]: x = np.array([1,2,3,4,5])

In [4]: x
Out[4]: array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

In [5]: type(x)
Out[5]: numpy.ndarray

In [6]: x.f
x.fill     x.flags    x.flat     x.flatten

In [6]: x.fill('boo')
