MaskedArray.copy()

numpy.ma.MaskedArray.copy

MaskedArray.copy(order='C')

Return a copy of the array.

Parameters:

order : {‘C’, ‘F’, ‘A’, ‘K’}, optional

Controls the memory layout of the copy. ‘C’ means C-order, ‘F’ means F-order, ‘A’ means ‘F’ if a is Fortran contiguous, ‘C’ otherwise. ‘K’ means match the layout of a as closely as possible. (Note that this function and :func:numpy.copy are very similar, but have different default values for their order= arguments.)
