unique_values

Returns the unique elements of an input array x.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
x	COO	Input COO array. It will be flattened if it is not already 1-D.	required

Returns:

Name	Type	Description
out	ndarray	The unique elements of an input array.

Raises:

Type	Description
ValueError	If the input array is in a different format than COO.

Examples:

>>> import sparse
>>> x = sparse.COO.from_numpy([1, 0, 2, 1, 2, -3])
>>> sparse.unique_values(x)
array([-3,  0,  1,  2])
