I have a given array with a length of over 1'000'000
and values between 0
and 255
(included) as integers. Now I would like to plot on the x-axis the integers from 0
to 255
and on the y-axis the quantity of the corresponding x value in the given array (called Arr
in my current code).
I thought about this code:
list = []
for i in range(0, 256):
icounter = 0
for x in range(len(Arr)):
if Arr[x] == i:
icounter += 1
list.append(icounter)
But is there any way I can do this a little bit faster (it takes me several minutes at the moment)? I thought about an import ...
, but wasn't able to find a good package for this.
Use numpy.bincount
for this task (look for more details here )
import numpy as np
list = np.bincount(Arr)
While I completely agree with the previous answers that you should use a standard histogram algorithm, it's quite easy to greatly speed up your own implementation. Its problem is that you pass through the entire input for each bin , over and over again. It would be much faster to only process the input once, and then write only to the relevant bin:
def hist(arr):
nbins = 256
result = [0] * nbins # or np.zeroes(nbins)
for y in arr:
if y>=0 and y<nbins:
result[y] += 1
return result
