SciPy - Sparse Matrices (scipy.sparse)
Identify the error in this code snippet:
from scipy.sparse import csr_matrix
import numpy as np
arr = np.array([[1, 0], [0, 2]])
csr = csr_matrix(arr)
print(csr.indptr[3])
AIndexError: index 3 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 3
BAttributeError: 'csr_matrix' object has no attribute 'indptr'
CTypeError: 'indptr' is not subscriptable
DNo error, prints the value at indptr[3]
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Check indptr length for 2x2 matrix

    indptr length = number of rows + 1 = 3, valid indices: 0,1,2
  2. Step 2: Accessing indptr[3]

    Index 3 is out of bounds, causing IndexError.
  3. Final Answer:

    IndexError: index 3 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 3 -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    indptr length = rows+1; index 3 invalid [OK]
Quick Trick: indptr length = number of rows + 1; index out of range causes error [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming indptr length equals number of rows
  • Accessing invalid indices in indptr
  • Confusing indptr with indices array
