Introduction

NumPy is the fundamental package for scientific computing with Python. It contains among other things:

• a powerful N-dimensional array object
• sophisticated (broadcasting) functions
• tools for integrating C/C++
• useful linear algebra, Fourier transform, and random number capabilities

Besides its obvious scientific uses, NumPy can also be used as an efficient multi-dimensional container of generic data. Arbitrary data-types can be defined and this allows NumPy to seamlessly and speedily integrate with a wide variety of projects. We are going to explore numpy through a simple example.
