pystencils.grids.protocols.FieldBufferSpec

class pystencils.grids.protocols.FieldBufferSpec(dtype, base_ptr_name, shape, strides)

Specification for a field’s memory buffers.

Parameters:

• dtype (PsType | DynamicType)

• base_ptr_name (str)

• shape (tuple[TypedSymbol | int, ...])

• strides (tuple[TypedSymbol | int, ...])

dtype: PsType | DynamicType

Data type of buffer entries

base_ptr_name: str

Name of the buffer’s base pointer

shape: tuple[TypedSymbol | int, ...]

Shape of the buffer’s interior region

strides: tuple[TypedSymbol | int, ...]

The buffer’s linearization strides

property rank: int

The buffer’s rank; the dimensionality of its index space.
