# numpy.unravel_index

`numpy.``unravel_index`(indices, dims, order='C')

  Converts a flat index or array of flat indices into a tuple of coordinate arrays.

  Parameters : | indices : array_like An integer array whose elements are indices into the flattened version of an array of dimensions `dims`. Before version 1.6.0, this function accepted just one index value. dims : tuple of ints The shape of the array to use for unraveling `indices`. order : {‘C’, ‘F’}, optional New in version 1.6.0. Determines whether the indices should be viewed as indexing in C (row-major) order or FORTRAN (column-major) order.
  Returns : | unraveled_coords : tuple of ndarray Each array in the tuple has the same shape as the `indices` array.

  Examples

      >>> np.unravel_index([22, 41, 37], (7,6))
      (array([3, 6, 6]), array([4, 5, 1]))
      >>> np.unravel_index([31, 41, 13], (7,6), order='F')
      (array([3, 6, 6]), array([4, 5, 1]))

      >>> np.unravel_index(1621, (6,7,8,9))
      (3, 1, 4, 1)
