numpy
(numerical python)

1. It is a module used for working with arrays.


2. It was created by Travis Oliphant in 2005.
3. In Python, we have lists that serve the purpose
of arrays, but they are slow to process.
4. numpy aims to provide an array object that is
up to 50x faster than traditional Python
lists.
5. The array object in numpy is called ndarray.
Why is numpy Faster Than Lists?

 numpy arrays are stored at one


continuous place in memory unlike
lists, so processes can access and
manipulate them very efficiently. This
behavior is called locality of reference
in computer science.
 Also it is optimized to work with latest
CPU architectures.
 Command to install numpy
pip install numpy
numpy.array(list or tuple)

1. Convert List into Array


import numpy
L=[1,2,10,20] # or tuple
a=numpy.array(L)
print(a)
Output:[1 2 10 20]
2. Check the version of installed numpy
print(numpy.__version__)
0-D Arrays

 0-D arrays, or Scalars, are the elements in an


array. Each value in an array is a 0-D array.

import numpy as np
k=np.array(38)
print(k)
 2D array or Matrix is also called 2nd order
Tensors.
 3D array is also called 3rd order Tensors.
ndim Attribute
 It is used to check the dimension of the array.

import numpy as np
a = np.array(42)
b = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
c = np.array([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])
d = np.array([[[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]], [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]]])
print(a.ndim) 0
print(b.ndim) 1
print(c.ndim) 2
print(d.ndim) 3
Accessing element
 To access elements from 2-D arrays we
can use comma separated integers
representing the dimension and the
index of the element.

import numpy as np
a = np.array([[1,2,3,4,5], [6,7,8,9,10]])
print(a[0, 1]) # instead of
a[0][1]

We can also use Negative indexes


Accessing elements by Slicing

 import numpy as np
a = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
[6, 7, 8, 9, 10]])
print(a[0:2, 1:4])
Datatype of Array and Datatype of
elements

 import numpy as np
a=np.array([1,2,3,4])
print(type(a)) # <class
'numpy.ndarray'>

print(a.dtype) # int32 Datatype


of element
Creating Arrays With a Defined Data
Type

 arr = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4], dtype=float)

Output:-
[1. 2. 3. 4. ]
a.copy() and a.view()
 a.copy() will create a new copy while a.view() just
creates a new reference to the existing object.
 import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
b = a.copy()
a[0] = 42
print(a) #[42 2 3 4 5]
print(b) #[1 2 3 4 5]
 import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
b = a.view()
a[0] = 42
print(a) #[42 2 3 4 5]
print(b) #[42 2 3 4 5]
Shape of an Array
a.shape

 a.shape that returns a tuple

import numpy as np
a = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8]])
print(a.shape) #(2,4)
Reshaping arrays
a.reshape()

 import numpy as np
a=
np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11,
12])
b = a.reshape(4, 3) #OR np.reshape(a,
(4,3))
print(b)
 Can we Reshape Into any Shape?
Yes, as long as the elements required for
reshaping are equal in both shapes.
Unknown Dimension

 You are allowed to have one "unknown"


dimension.
 Meaning that you do not have to specify an exact
number for one of the dimensions in the reshape
method. Pass -1 as the value, and NumPy will
calculate this number for you.
 import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8])
b = a.reshape(2, 2, -1)
print(b)
 Note: We can not pass -1 to more than one
dimension.
Flattening the arrays

 Flattening array means converting a


multidimensional array into a 1D array.
 import numpy as np
a= np.array([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])
b = a.reshape(-1)
print(b)
OR
b=a.flatten()
print(b)
OR
b=a.ravel()
print(b)
Transpose of Array
 a= np.array([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])
b=a.transpose() #OR
np.transpose(a)
print(b)
