Given a starting numpy array that looks like:
B = np.array( [1, 1, 1, 0, 2, 2, 1, 3, 3, 0, 4, 4, 4, 4] )
What it the most efficient way to swap one set of values for another when there are duplicates? For example, let
s1 = [1,2,4]
s2 = [4,1,2]
An inefficient swapping method would iterate through s1
and s2
as so:
B2 = B.copy()
for x,y in zip(s1,s2):
B2[B==x] = y
Giving as output
B2 -> [4, 4, 4, 0, 1, 1, 4, 3, 3, 0, 2, 2, 2, 2]
Is there a way to do this essentially in-place without the zip
loop?
