python numpy roll with padding
- by Marshall Ward
I'd like to roll a 2D numpy in python, except that I'd like pad the ends with zeros rather than roll the data as if its periodic.
Specifically, the following code
import numpy as np
x = np.array([[1, 2, 3],[4, 5, 6]])
np.roll(x,1,axis=1)
returns
array([[3, 1, 2],[6, 4, 5]])
but what I would prefer is
array([[0, 1, 2], [0, 4, 5]])
I could do this with a few awkward touchups, but I'm hoping that there's a way to do it with fast built-in commands.
Thanks
