NumPy
What is NumPy??
NumPy is a general-purpose array-processing package. It provides a high-performance multidimensional array object and tools for working with these arrays. It is the fundamental package for scientific computing with Python. It is open-source software.
Features of NumPy
NumPy has various features including these important ones:
- A powerful N-dimensional array object
- Sophisticated (broadcasting) functions
- Tools for integrating C/C++ and Fortran code
- Useful linear algebra, Fourier transform, and random number capabilities
Besides its obvious scientific uses, NumPy in Python can also be used as an efficient multi-dimensional container of generic data. Arbitrary data types can be defined using Numpy which allows NumPy to seamlessly and speedily integrate with a wide variety of databases.
