Numpy Adding two vectors with different sizes

This could be what you are looking for

if len(a) < len(b):    c = b.copy()    c[:len(a)] += aelse:    c = a.copy()    c[:len(b)] += b

basically you copy the longer one and then add in-place the shorter one

python numpy linear-algebra

If you know that b is higher dimension, then:

>>> a.resize(b.shape)>>> c = a+b

is all you need.

python numpy linear-algebra

Very similar to the one above, but a little more compact:

l = sorted((a, b), key=len)c = l[1].copy()c[:len(l[0])] += l[0]
