NumPy: Sort a given complex array using the real part first, then the imaginary part

NumPy Sorting and Searching: Exercise-6 with Solution

Write a NumPy program to sort a given complex array using the real part first, then the imaginary part.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import numpy as np
complex_num = [1 + 2j, 3 - 1j, 3 - 2j, 4 - 3j, 3 + 5j]
print("Original array:")
print(complex_num)
print("\nSorted a given complex array using the real part first, then the imaginary part.")
print(np.sort_complex(complex_num))

Sample Output:

Original array:
[(1+2j), (3-1j), (3-2j), (4-3j), (3+5j)]

Sorted a given complex array using the real part first, then the imaginary part.
[1.+2.j 3.-2.j 3.-1.j 3.+5.j 4.-3.j]

Previous: Write a NumPy program to get the indices of the sorted elements of a given array.
Next: Write a NumPy program to partition a given array in a specified position and move all the smaller elements values to the left of the partition, and the remaining values to the right, in arbitrary order (based on random choice).

Python: Tips of the Day

Find current directory and file's directory:

To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

To get the current working directory use

import os
cwd = os.getcwd()

Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:

  • The os and os.path modules.
  • The __file__ constant
  • os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
  • os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
  • os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
  • os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
