Using the numpy.ldexp() in Numpy
To return the x1 * 2**x2, element-wise, use the numpy.ldexp() method in Python Numpy. The 1st parameter X1 is the array of multipliers. The 2nd parameter X2 is the array of twos exponents. If x1.shape != x2.shape, they must be broadcastable to a common shape (which becomes the shape of the output).
The out is a location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. A tuple (possible only as a keyword argument) must have length equal to the number of outputs.
The condition is broadcast over the input. At locations where the condition is True, the out array will be set to the ufunc result. Elsewhere, the out array will retain its original value. Note that if an uninitialized out array is created via the default out=None, locations within it where the condition is False will remain uninitialized.
Steps
At first, import the required library −
import numpy as np
To return the x1 * 2**x2, element-wise, use the numpy.ldexp() method in Python Numpy.
Check for float −
print("Result? ", np.ldexp(5.6, np.arange(3)))
Check for negative float −
print("Result? ", np.ldexp(-7.5, np.arange(3)))
Check for int −
print("Result? ", np.ldexp(9, np.arange(3)))
Check for negative int −
print("Result? ", np.ldexp(106, np.arange(3)))
Check for nan −
print("Result? ", np.ldexp(np.nan, np.arange(3)))
Check for inf −
print("Result? ", np.ldexp(np.inf, np.arange(3)))

Output
