When working with one-dimensional array’s we use the term vector and a matrix is a term we use for the concept of storing matrices of more than one dimension.
Transposing, on the other hand, can have a significant impact on what a practitioner does when working with artificial intelligence and machine learning.
If you are interested in another approach to this topic you should check out this resource by Claus Fuhrer, Jan Erik Solem, and Olivier Verdier.
If you prefer to see how something similar to the above code could be implemented take a look at Noureddin’s video on NumPy’s Array Transposition on YouTube.
