Convert MLX array to R vector

Converts an MLX array to an R vector. For multi-dimensional arrays (2+ dimensions), a warning is issued and the array is flattened in column-major order (R's default).

Usage

# S3 method for class 'mlx'
as.vector(x, mode = "any")

Arguments

x

An mlx array.

mode

Character string specifying the type of vector to return (passed to base::as.vector())

Value

A vector of the specified mode

Examples

x <- as_mlx(1:5)
as.vector(x)
#> [1] 1 2 3 4 5

# Multi-dimensional arrays produce a warning
m <- as_mlx(matrix(1:6, 2, 3))
v <- suppressWarnings(as.vector(m))  # Flattened in column-major order
