Replace negative values in an numpy array

Question

Is there a simple way of replacing all negative values in an array with 0?

I\'m having a complete block on how to do it using a NumPy array.

E.g.

Answer 1

Here's a way to do it in Python without NumPy. Create a function that returns what you want and use a list comprehension, or the map function.

>>> a = [1, 2, 3, -4, 5]

>>> def zero_if_negative(x):
...   if x < 0:
...     return 0
...   return x
...

>>> [zero_if_negative(x) for x in a]
[1, 2, 3, 0, 5]

>>> map(zero_if_negative, a)
[1, 2, 3, 0, 5]
