Python: replace numbers in an array [duplicate]

Question

I have the following array:

array = array([4., 0., 2., 8., 8., 8., 8., 2., 0.])

and I would like to replace 0 by 0.5 so to get:

array = array([4., 0.5, 2., 8., 8., 8., 8., 2., 0.5])

so far I have tried:

array.replace(0.5, 0)

with little success:

AttributeError: 'numpy.ndarray' object has no attribute 'replace'

any idea on how to keep the array format but replace numbers inside it?

cheers!

You can boolean indexing to locate the items you want to replace and then just assign the value:

import numpy as np

array = np.array([4., 0., 2., 8., 8., 8., 8., 2., 0.])

array[array == 0.0] = 0.5

print(array)
# [4.  0.5 2.  8.  8.  8.  8.  2.  0.5]
