We can either concatenate 1D arrays horizontally or vertically.
Concatenating horizontally
To concatenate horizontally, we can use either use the np.concatenate(~) or np.hstack(~) method.
Here's a quick example where we concatenate two 1D Numpy arrays:
x = np.array([1,2])y = np.array([3,4,5])z = np.concatenate([x,y]) # np.hstack([x,y]) works as wellz
array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
Since the concatenate(~) method takes in an array, you can easily concatenate numerous 1D arrays at once.
WARNING
Do not use + to concatenate Numpy arrays
For standard Python lists, the + operator can be used to concatenate lists: [1,2] + [3,4] = [1,2,3,4]. The + operator for Numpy arrays works entirely differently:
np.array([1,2]) + np.array([3,4])
array([4, 6])
Notice how instead of a concatenation, we got an element-wise addition.
Concatenating vertically
To concatenate 1D Numpy arrays vertically, we can use the np.vstack(~) method:
x = np.array([1,2])y = np.array([3,4])z = np.vstack([x,y])z
array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
Notice how we end up with a 2D Numpy array.
