NumPy Introduction
NumPy
• NumPy stands for Numerical Python.
• NumPy is a Python library used for working with arrays.
• It also has functions for working in domain of linear algebra, fourier transform, and
matrices.
• NumPy aims to provide an array object that is up to 50x faster than traditional Python
lists.
• NumPy was created in 2005 by Travis Oliphant. It is an open source project and you
can use it freely.
Installation of NumPy
• If you have Python and PIP already installed on a system, then installation of NumPy is
very easy.
• Install it using this command:
• C:\Users\Your Name>pip install numpy
Import NumPy:
• Once NumPy is installed, import it in your applications by adding the import keyword:
NumPy Creating Arrays
• NumPy is used to work with arrays. The array object in NumPy is called
ndarray.

• We can create a NumPy ndarray object by using the array() function.

• To create an ndarray, we can pass a list, tuple or any array-like object into
the array() method, and it will be converted into an ndarray
Dimensions in Arrays
• A dimension in arrays is one level of array depth
Access Array Elements & Slicing

• Access Array Elements


• You can access an array element by referring to its index number.
• The indexes in NumPy arrays start with 0, meaning that the first element has index 0, and the second has
index 1 etc.

• NumPy Array Slicing


• We pass slice instead of index like this: [start:end].
• We can also define the step, like this: [start:end:step].
NumPy Array Shape/reshape
• The shape of an array is the number of elements in each dimension.

• NumPy arrays have an attribute called shape that returns a tuple with each
index having the number of corresponding elements.

• By reshaping we can add or remove dimensions or change number of


elements in each dimension.
NumPy Array Iterating
• We can do this using basic for loop of python.

• The function nditer() is a helping function that can be used from very basic
to very advanced iterations.
