I have need the N minimum (index) values in a numpy array

Question

Hi I have an array with X amount of values in it I would like to locate the indexs of the ten smallest values. In this link they calculated the maximum effectively, How to get i

Answer 1

If you call

arr.argsort()[:3]

It will give you the indices of the 3 smallest elements.

array([0, 2, 1], dtype=int64)

So, for n, you should call

arr.argsort()[:n]
