Convert MLX array to R matrix

MLX arrays with other than 2 dimensions are converted to a 1 column matrix, with a warning.

Usage

# S3 method for class 'mlx'
as.matrix(x, ...)

Arguments

x

An mlx array.

...

Additional arguments; ignored.

Value

A vector, matrix or array (numeric or logical depending on dtype).

Details

MLX does not support float64 operations on GPU. When this function creates a float64 array or converts one back to R, Rmlx temporarily switches only that internal creation or layout work to CPU. Later operations on the returned array still use the current mlx_device().

Examples

x <- mlx_matrix(1:4, 2, 2)
as.matrix(x)
#>      [,1] [,2]
#> [1,]    1    3
#> [2,]    2    4
