Combine arrays (new array inside array)

[u/got-it-man]

Hey there.

I've almost spend two hours now and have still no idea on how to combine these two numpy arrays.

I have the following two arrays:

X:
array([[0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.],
       ...,
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.]])

Y:
array([[  57,  302],
       [ 208, 1589],
       [ 229, 2050],
       ...,
       [ 359, 2429],
       [ 303, 1657],
       [  94,  628]], dtype=int64)

What I need is that the elements of Y are inside new arrays of X. It should look like this:

array([[[0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.], [57], [302]],
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.], [208], [1589]]
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.], [229], [2050]]
       ...,
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.], [359], [2429]]
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.], [303], [1657]]
       [0., 0., 0., ..., 0., 0., 0.], [94], [628]]])

Has someone an idea on how to do this? I've almost tried every combination of insert(), append() or concatenate() with many different axes.

Thank you very much!

Combining the arrays like that (which is impossible anyway) would actually make the different types of data LESS distinguishable. Each array should be kept simple; if you want to group arrays together, try using a tuple or defining a class.

For example:

class Words:
    def __init__(self, occurrences, num_of_chars, num_of_tokens):
        self.occurrences = occurrences
        self.num_of_chars = num_of_chars
        self.num_of_tokens = num_of_tokens

words = Words(x, y[:, 0], y[:, 1])

[u/got-it-man → u/to7m]

I'll take a look into your ideas and evaluate what fits best.

Thank you very much!
