BetaHere, we specify a start of index 2, no end, and a step of -1. Slicing here will start from index 2 which is 3. The negative steps mean the next value in the slice will be at an index smaller than the previous index by 1. This means 2 - 1 which is 1 so the value at this index, which is 2 will be added to the slice.

BetaHence, we can see that we can not pass -1 to more than one. Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 3, in <module> newarr = arr.reshape(2, -1, -1) ValueError: can only specify one unknown dimension. Flattening the Numpy arrays. Flattening an array means converting an array to a 1D array. We can use reshape(-1) to do this. Example 1

BetaThis is numpy-specific and will not work for most python objects. The : means "take everything in this dimension" and the ::-1 means "take everything in this dimension but backwards." Your matrix has three dimensions: height, width and color. Here you're flipping the color from BGR to RGB.
