numpy/lib/_stride_tricks_impl.py:475–517

Broadcast an array to a new shape. Parameters ---------- array : array_like The array to broadcast. shape : tuple or int The shape of the desired array. A single integer ``i`` is interpreted as ``(i,)``. subok : bool, optional If True, then sub-cl

    """Broadcast an array to a new shape.

    Parameters
    ----------
    array : array_like
        The array to broadcast.
    shape : tuple or int
        The shape of the desired array. A single integer ``i`` is interpreted
        as ``(i,)``.
    subok : bool, optional
        If True, then sub-classes will be passed-through, otherwise
        the returned array will be forced to be a base-class array (default).

    Returns
    -------
    broadcast : array
        A readonly view on the original array with the given shape. It is
        typically not contiguous. Furthermore, more than one element of a
        broadcasted array may refer to a single memory location.

    Raises
    ------
    ValueError
        If the array is not compatible with the new shape according to NumPy's
        broadcasting rules.
