## What is NumPy?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NumPy is a powerful array-processing library in Python, essential for scientific computing. It provides efficient data structures and tools for working with multidimensional arrays.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Key Features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Efficient Arrays:** NumPy offers high-performance N-dimensional array objects for swift data manipulation.
|
||
|
|
2. **Broadcasting:** Advanced broadcasting enables seamless element-wise operations on arrays of varying shapes.
|
||
|
|
3. **Interoperability:** NumPy seamlessly integrates with C, C++, and Fortran, enhancing performance and versatility.
|
||
|
|
4. **Mathematical Tools:** Comprehensive support for linear algebra, Fourier transforms, and random number generation.

## Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ensure Python is installed in your system. If not you can install it from here([official Python website](https://www.python.org/)),then install NumPy via:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
pip install numpy
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Importing NumPy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To access NumPy functions, import it with the alias `np`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```python
|
||
|
|
import numpy as np
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Using `np` as an alias enhances code readability and is a widely adopted convention.
