arr : array_like of str or unicode.
sub : [str or unicode] The substring which to be searched.
start : [ int, optional] The starting location in each string.
end : [ int, optional] The ending location in each string.

Returns : [ndarray] Output array of ints.

Code #1 :




# Python program explaining
# numpy.char.rfind() method 
  
# importing numpy as geek
import numpy as geek
  
# input arrays  
in_arr = geek.array(['aAaAaA', 'baA', 'abBABba'])
print ("Input array : ", in_arr) 
  
# output arrays 
out_arr = geek.char.rfind(in_arr, sub ='A')
print ("Output array: ", out_arr) 


Output:

Input array :  ['aAaAaA' 'baA' 'abBABba']
Output array:  [5 2 3]

 
Code #2 :




# Python program explaining
# numpy.char.rfind() method 
  
# importing numpy as geek
import numpy as geek
  
# input arrays  
in_arr = geek.array(['aAaAaA', 'aA', 'abBABba'])
print ("Input array : ", in_arr) 
  
# output arrays 
out_arr = geek.char.rfind(in_arr, sub ='a', start = 3, end = 7)
print ("Output array: ", out_arr) 


Output:

Input array :  ['aAaAaA' 'aA' 'abBABba']
Output array:  [ 4 -1  6]
