python how to find where the elements of an array fit inside an array of values












0














I have a big 1D array of values, say all between 0 and 1. I have a second array that partition the [0,1] intervals into M bins, and I am trying to find the proper way to know which bin each of the big array values would fit in.
Something like:



big = np.random.random(10000000)
bins = np.arange(0,1,0.01)
results = np.zeros_like(big)
for i,b in enumerate(big):
results[i] = np.argmin(b>bins)


but of course without the costly for loop....
