Fill an mlx array with a constant value

Usage

mlx_full(dim, value, dtype = NULL, device = mlx_default_device())

Arguments

dim

Integer vector specifying array dimensions (shape).

value

Scalar value used to fill the array. Numeric, logical, or complex.

dtype

Data type string. Supported types include:

  • Floating point: "float32", "float64"

  • Integer: "int8", "int16", "int32", "int64", "uint8", "uint16", "uint32", "uint64"

  • Other: "bool", "complex64"

Not all functions support all types. See individual function documentation.

device

Execution target: supply "gpu", "cpu", or an mlx_stream created via mlx_new_stream(). Defaults to the current mlx_default_device() unless noted otherwise (helpers that act on an existing array typically reuse that array's device or stream).

Value

An mlx array filled with the supplied value.

Examples

filled <- mlx_full(c(2, 2), 3.14)
complex_full <- mlx_full(c(2, 2), 1+2i, dtype = "complex64")
