jax.numpy.sqrt¶
- jax.numpy.sqrt(x)¶
Return the non-negative square-root of an array, element-wise.
LAX-backend implementation of
sqrt().Original docstring below.
- Parameters
x (array_like) – The values whose square-roots are required.
out (ndarray, None, or tuple of ndarray and None, optional) – A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. A tuple (possible only as a keyword argument) must have length equal to the number of outputs.
where (array_like, optional) – This condition is broadcast over the input. At locations where the condition is True, the out array will be set to the ufunc result. Elsewhere, the out array will retain its original value. Note that if an uninitialized out array is created via the default
out=None, locations within it where the condition is False will remain uninitialized.**kwargs – For other keyword-only arguments, see the ufunc docs.
- Returns
y – An array of the same shape as x, containing the positive square-root of each element in x. If any element in x is complex, a complex array is returned (and the square-roots of negative reals are calculated). If all of the elements in x are real, so is y, with negative elements returning
nan. If out was provided, y is a reference to it. This is a scalar if x is a scalar.- Return type
