to_array() -> npt.NDArray[np.number]

Returns the dense form of the linear operator as a 2D NumPy array.

Warning

This method first allocates a NumPy array of shape self.shape and data-type self.dtype, and then fills them with numbers. As such, for a large linear operator, it can occupy an enormous amount of memory and crash your system. Don't use it unless you understand the risk!

Returns:
