How do you multiply each element by a matrix in NumPy?

numpy.multiply() function is used when we want to compute the multiplication of two array. It returns the product of arr1 and arr2, element-wise.

Syntax : numpy.multiply(arr1, arr2, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting=’same_kind’, order=’K’, dtype=None, subok=True[, signature, extobj], ufunc ‘multiply’)
Parameters :
arr1: [array_like or scalar]1st Input array.
arr2: [array_like or scalar]2nd Input array.
dtype: The type of the returned array. By default, the dtype of arr is used.
out: [ndarray, optional] 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.
where: [array_like, optional] Values of True indicate to calculate the ufunc at that position, values of False indicate to leave the value in the output alone.
**kwargs: Allows to pass keyword variable length of argument to a function. Used when we want to handle named argument in a function.
Return: [ndarray or scalar] The product of arr1 and arr2, element-wise.
