NumPy's API is the starting point when libraries are written to exploit innovative hardware, create specialized array types, or add capabilities beyond what NumPy provides.ĭistributed arrays and advanced parallelism for analytics, enabling performance at scale. With this power comes simplicity: a solution in NumPy is often clear and elegant. NumPy brings the computational power of languages like C and Fortran to Python, a language much easier to learn and use. Nearly every scientist working in Python draws on the power of NumPy.
