cat
cat(dims, A...)
Concatenate the input arrays along the specified dimensions in the iterable dims
. For dimensions not in dims
, all input arrays should have the same size, which will also be the size of the output array along that dimension. For dimensions in dims
, the size of the output array is the sum of the sizes of the input arrays along that dimension. If dims
is a single number, the different arrays are tightly stacked along that dimension. If dims
is an iterable containing several dimensions, this allows to construct block diagonal matrices and their higher-dimensional analogues by simultaneously increasing several dimensions for every new input array and putting zero blocks elsewhere. For example, cat([1,2], matrices...)
builds a block diagonal matrix, i.e. a block matrix with matrices[1]
, matrices[2]
, ... as diagonal blocks and matching zero blocks away from the diagonal.
Examples
julia> foo = Array(Int8,2,2)
2x2 Array{Int8,2}:
2 0
0 0
julia> bar = Array(Int8,2,2)
2x2 Array{Int8,2}:
-93 -111
62 5
julia> cat(1,foo,bar)
4x2 Array{Int8,2}:
2 0
0 0
-93 -111
62 5
julia> cat(2,foo,bar)
2x4 Array{Int8,2}:
2 0 -93 -111
0 0 62 5
