ArrayComponents

ArrayComponents[array]

gives an array in which all identical elements of array are replaced by an integer index representing the component in which the element lies.

ArrayComponents[array,level]

finds the identical elements at the specified level in array

ArrayComponents[array,level,rules]

uses a rule or a list of rules for specifying the labels.

Details

  • ArrayComponents returns a label matrix where identical elements are represented by consecutive non-negative integers.
  • Occurrences of zeros or None in array are always labeled with zeros.
  • ArrayComponents can be used to canonicalize label matrices.

Scope  (3)

ArrayComponents works with arbitrarily nested lists of symbols:

Label all positive integers with a specific label:

Use a specific label for a component:
