mlx.core.slice#

slice(a: array, start_indices: array, axes: Sequence[int], slice_size: Sequence[int], *, stream: None | Stream | Device = None) → array#

Extract a sub-array from the input array.

Parameters:

  • a (array) – Input array

  • start_indices (array) – The index location to start the slice at.

  • axes (tuple(int)) – The axes corresponding to the indices in start_indices.

  • slice_size (tuple(int)) – The size of the slice.

Returns:

The sliced output array.

Return type:

array

Example

>>> a = mx.array([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])
>>> mx.slice(a, start_indices=mx.array(1), axes=(0,), slice_size=(1, 2))
array([[4, 5]], dtype=int32)
>>>
>>> mx.slice(a, start_indices=mx.array(1), axes=(1,), slice_size=(2, 1))
array([[2],
       [5]], dtype=int32)
