How do I remove every nth element in an array?
import numpy as np
x = np.array([0,10,27,35,44,32,56,35,87,22,47,17])
n = 3 # remove every 3rd element
...something like the opposite of x[0::n]
? I've tried this, but of course it doesn't work:
for i in np.arange(0,len(x),n):
x = np.delete(x,i)
You're close... Pass the entire arange as subslice to delete instead of attempting to delete each element in turn, eg:
import numpy as np
x = np.array([0,10,27,35,44,32,56,35,87,22,47,17])
x = np.delete(x, np.arange(0, x.size, 3))
# [10 27 44 32 35 87 47 17]
