If it doesn't have to be writeable you can create such an array with np.broadcast_to
:
>>> import numpy as np
>>> np.broadcast_to(True, (2, 5))
array([[ True, True, True, True, True],
[ True, True, True, True, True]], dtype=bool)
If you need it writable you can also create an empty array and fill
it yourself:
>>> arr = np.empty((2, 5), dtype=bool)
>>> arr.fill(1)
>>> arr
array([[ True, True, True, True, True],
[ True, True, True, True, True]], dtype=bool)
These approaches are only alternative suggestions. In general you should stick with np.full
, np.zeros
or np.ones
like the other answers suggest.
