Parameters
----------
arrays : list of array-like
1-D arrays to form the cartesian product of.
out : ndarray
Array to place the cartesian product in.
Returns
-------
out : ndarray
2-D array of shape (M, len(arrays)) containing cartesian products
formed of input arrays.
Examples
--------
>>> cartesian(([1, 2, 3], [4, 5], [6, 7]))
