numpy.asmatrix(data, dtype = None) Returns a matrix by interpreting the input as a matrix. Parameters :

data  : array-like input data 
dtype : Data type of returned array

Returns :

Interprets the input as a matrix

Python

# Python Programming illustrating
# numpy.asmatrix

import numpy as geek

# array-like input
b = geek.matrix([[5, 6, 7], [4, 6]])
print("Via array-like input : \n", b, "\n")

c = geek.asmatrix(b)
b[0, 1] = 10
print("c matrix : \n", c)

Output :

Via array-like input : 
 [[[5, 6, 7] [4, 6]]] 

c matrix : 
 [[[5, 6, 7] 10]]
