将数组从c传输到python

我正在将double - 数组从c - 函数转移到python - 函数。我的代码是:
C代码:

double *compute(int size, const double a[])
{
    double* array;
    array = malloc(sizeof(double)*size);
    for (int i=0; i<size; i++)
    {
    array[i] = 3*a[i];
    }
    //printf("Array in compute-function is: \n[");
    //for(int i = 0; i < size; i++)
        //printf("%f, ", array[i]);
    //printf("]\n");
    return array;
}

PYX代码:

cdef class ArrayWrapper:
    cdef void* data_ptr
    cdef int size

    cdef set_data(self, int size, void* data_ptr):
        """ Set the data of the array
        This cannot be done in the constructor as it must recieve C-level
        arguments.
        Parameters:
        -----------
        size: int
            Length of the array.
        data_ptr: void*
            Pointer to the data            
        """
        self.data_ptr = data_ptr
        self.size = size

    def __array__(self):
        """ Here we use the __array__ method, that is called when numpy
            tries to get an array from the object."""
        cdef np.npy_intp shape[1]
        shape[0] = <np.npy_intp> self.size
        # Create a 1D array, of length 'size'
        ndarray = np.PyArray_SimpleNewFromData(1, shape,
                                               np.NPY_INT, self.data_ptr)
        return ndarray

    def __dealloc__(self):
        """ Frees the array. This is called by Python when all the
        references to the object are gone. """
        free(<void*>self.data_ptr)


def py_compute(int size, np.ndarray[np.double_t,ndim=1] a):
    """ Python binding of the 'compute' function in 'GNLSE_RHS.c' that does
        not copy the data allocated in C.
    """
    cdef double *array
    cdef np.ndarray ndarray
    # Call the C function
    array = compute(size, <double*> a.data)

    array_wrapper = ArrayWrapper()
    array_wrapper.set_data(size, <void*> array) 
    ndarray = np.array(array_wrapper, copy=False)
    # Assign our object to the 'base' of the ndarray object
    ndarray.base = <PyObject*> array_wrapper
    # Increment the reference count, as the above assignement was done in
    # C, and Python does not know that there is this additional reference
    Py_INCREF(array_wrapper)


    return ndarray

蟒代码:

for i in xrange(10):
    x[i] = i;

a = cython_wrapper.py_compute(10, x)
print a

但我的结果是

[         0          0          0 1074266112          0 1075314688          0 1075970048          0 1076363264]

而不是预期的

[  0.   3.   6.   9.  12.  15.  18.  21.  24.  27.]

我的错误在哪里?我认为它与有问题的指针传输有关,但我不确定。

答案 0 :(得分:1)

这里的错误是在行

ndarray = np.PyArray_SimpleNewFromData(1, shape,
                                      np.NPY_INT, self.data_ptr)

你告诉numpy self.data_ptr指向一个int数组而不是一个双打。

您可以通过告知numpy正确的数据类型来修复代码,如下所示:

ndarray = np.PyArray_SimpleNewFromData(1, shape,
                                      np.NPY_DOUBLE, self.data_ptr)

它应该按预期工作。

除此之外,您还可以稍微简化您的包装器代码,而不必传入输入数组的大小,因为它已包含在您传递给np.ndarray的{​​{1}}中/ p>
