How To Check If A Numpy Array Is A Subarray Of Another Bigger Array

So basically I have two arrays, and I want to check if one array is in another... I'm looking for a way to do something like this: >>> arr1 = np.array([1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0])

Solution 1:

The most intuitive way seems to be an iterative process like so:

defisSubset(arr1, arr2): 

    m = len(arr1)
    n = len(arr2)

    for i inrange(0, n):
        for j inrange(0, m):  
            if arr2[i] == arr1[j] 
                break; 
        """ 
        If the above inner loop was 
        not broken at all then arr2[i] 
        is not present in arr1 
        """if j == m:
           returnFalse"""
    If we reach here then all 
    elements of arr2 are present 
    in arr1
    """returnTrue

Solution 2:

try using a 2D mask:

ix = np.arange(len(arr1) - len(test_array))[:,None] + np.arange(len(test_array))
(arr1[ix] - test_array).all(axis=1).any()
>> False
(arr2[ix] - test_array).all(axis=1).any()
>> True

or in a function:

defarray_in(arr, test_arr):
    return (arr[np.arange(len(arr) - len(test_arr))[:,None] +
               np.arange(len(test_arr))] == test_arr).all(axis=1).any()
