part, the return value for that element is True. Parameters ---------- x : array_like Input array. Returns ------- out : ndarray, bool Boolean array of same shape as `x`. Notes ----- `isreal` may behave unexpectedly for string or object arrays (see examples) See Also -------- iscomplex isrealobj : Return True if x is not a complex type. Examples -------- >>> a = np.array([1+1j, 1+0j, 4.5, 3, 2, 2j], dtype=complex) >>> np.isreal(a) array([False, True, True, True, True, False]) The function does not work on string arrays. >>> a = np.array([2j, "a"], dtype="U") >>> np.isreal(a) # Warns about non-elementwise comparison False Returns True for all elements in input array of ``dtype=object`` even if any of the elements is complex. >>> a = np.array([1, "2", 3+4j], dtype=object) >>> np.isreal(a) array([ True, True, True]) isreal should not be used with object arrays >>> a = np.array([1+2j, 2+1j], dtype=object) >>> np.isreal(a) array([ True, True]) r
