mindspore.Tensor.type_as

Tensor.type_as(other)[source]

Returns self tensor cast to the type of the input other tensor.

Note

When converting complex numbers to boolean type, the imaginary part of the complex number is not taken into account. As long as the real part is non-zero, it returns True; otherwise, it returns False.

Parameters: other (Tensor) – The tensor whose data type is specified. The shape of tensor is \((x_0, x_1, ..., x_R)\).
Returns: Tensor, the shape of tensor is the same as self, \((x_0, x_1, ..., x_R)\).
Raises: TypeError – If other is not a Tensor.

Supported Platforms:: Ascend GPU CPU

Examples

>>> import mindspore
>>> import numpy as np
>>> from mindspore import Tensor
>>> input_np = np.random.randn(2, 3, 4, 5).astype(np.float32)
>>> self = Tensor(input_np)
>>> other_np = np.random.randn(2, 3, 4).astype(np.int32)
>>> other = Tensor(other_np)
>>> output = self.type_as(other)
>>> print(output.dtype)
Int32
>>> print(output.shape)
