>>> import numpy as np
>>> import numpy.ma as ma
>>> a = ma.masked_equal([[1,2],[3,4]], 2)
>>> a
masked_array(
  data=[[1, --],
        [3, 4]],
  mask=[[False,  True],
        [False, False]],
  fill_value=2)
>>> ma.getmaskarray(a)
array([[False,  True],
       [False, False]])

Result when mask == nomask

>>> b = ma.masked_array([[1,2],[3,4]])
>>> b
masked_array(
  data=[[1, 2],
        [3, 4]],
  mask=False,
  fill_value=999999)
>>> ma.getmaskarray(b)
array([[False, False],
       [False, False]])
