About this ebook

This book covers Python mathematical library NumPy in detail. NumPy (short for Numerical Python) provides an efficient interface to store and operate on dense data buffers. In some ways, NumPy arrays are like Python's built-in list type, but NumPy arrays provide much more efficient storage and data operations as the arrays grow larger in size. NumPy arrays form the core of nearly the entire ecosystem of data science tools in Python, so time spent learning to use NumPy effectively will be valuable no matter what aspect of data science interests you.


You will learn all the essential things needed to become a confident NumPy user. NumPy started originally as part of SciPy and then was singled out as a fundamental library, which other open source Python APIs build on. As such, it is a crucial part of the common Python stack used for numerical and data analysis.


Anyone with basic (and upward) knowledge of Python is the targeted audience for this book. Although the tools in NumPy are relatively advanced, using them is simple and should keep even a novice Python programmer happy.


Features;


● Work with vectors and matrices using NumPy

● Plot and visualize data with Matplotlib

● Perform data analysis tasks with Pandas and SciPy

● Review statistical modeling and machine learning with statsmodels and scikit-learn

● Optimize Python code using Numba and Cython


After reading this book, you will be familiar with many computing techniques including array-based and symbolic computing, visualization and numerical file I/O, equation solving, optimization, interpolation and integration, and domain-specific computational problems, such as differential equation solving, data analysis, statistical modeling and machine learning.
