How to iterate over a sparse matrix with condition in Python

I have a matrix with only 0 and 1 and it works as the indicator. Now I would like to replace the element of the matrix with value of 5 to the power of the original element. I am working in Python.

For example, if:

old element = 0 -> new element is 5^0 = 1; else
old element = 1 -> new element is 5^1 = 5

INPUT:

0 1 0
0 1 1

OUTPUT:

1 5 1
1 5 5

This is for my thesis code. I am trying to find power function or exponential package but it is not the one I need.

Solution

  • No need to iterate (in python code), just use your 0/1 array as index

     arr = np.array([[0,1,0],[1,0,1]])
 new = np.array([1,5])[arr]
