In Numpy, we use the [] syntax to access particular rows of a 2D Numpy array.
Suppose we have the following 2D Numpy array:
        
        
            
                
                
                    x = np.array([[1,2], [3,4], [5,6]])x
                
            
            array([[1, 2],       [3, 4],       [5, 6]])
        
    Access the first row
        
        
            
                
                
                    x[0]
                
            
            [1, 2]
        
    Access all rows from positions 1 to 2
        
        
            
                
                
                    x[1:3]
                
            
            [[3, 4], [5, 6]]
        
    Just as reference, we show our 2D Numpy array x here again:
        
        
            
                
                
                    [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]]
                
            
            
        
    Access all rows up until (exclusive) position 2:
        
        
            
                
                
                    x[:2]
                
            
            [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
        
    Access all rows from position 1 onwards
        
        
            
                
                
                    x[1:]
                
            
            [[3, 4], [5, 6]]
        
    Accessing the last row
        
        
            
                
                
                    x[-1]
                
            
            [5, 6]
