xarray.DataArray.count

xarray.DataArray.count#

DataArray.count(dim=None, *, keep_attrs=None, **kwargs)[source]#

Reduce this DataArray’s data by applying count along some dimension(s).

Parameters

  • dim (str, Iterable of Hashable, "..." or None, default: None) – Name of dimension[s] along which to apply count. For e.g. dim="x" or dim=["x", "y"]. If “…” or None, will reduce over all dimensions.

  • keep_attrs (bool or None, optional) – If True, attrs will be copied from the original object to the new one. If False, the new object will be returned without attributes.

  • **kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments passed on to the appropriate array function for calculating count on this object’s data. These could include dask-specific kwargs like split_every.

Returns

reduced (DataArray) – New DataArray with count applied to its data and the indicated dimension(s) removed

Examples

>>> da = xr.DataArray(
...     np.array([1, 2, 3, 0, 2, np.nan]),
...     dims="time",
...     coords=dict(
...         time=("time", pd.date_range("2001-01-01", freq="ME", periods=6)),
...         labels=("time", np.array(["a", "b", "c", "c", "b", "a"])),
...     ),
... )
>>> da
<xarray.DataArray (time: 6)> Size: 48B
array([ 1.,  2.,  3.,  0.,  2., nan])
Coordinates:
  * time     (time) datetime64[ns] 48B 2001-01-31 2001-02-28 ... 2001-06-30
    labels   (time) <U1 24B 'a' 'b' 'c' 'c' 'b' 'a'

>>> da.count()
<xarray.DataArray ()> Size: 8B
array(5)
