NUMPY:

*Numpy sttands for numerical python.


*Numpy is a python library used for working with arrays.
*It also has functions for working in domain of linear algebra,fourier
transform,and matrices
numpy was created in 2005 by travis oliphant.It is an open source project.

WHY WE USE NUMPY?


*In python we have lists that serve the purpose of arrays,but they are slow to
process.
*Numpy aims to provide an array object that is upto 50x faster than traditional
python list.
*The array object in python is called ndarray,it provides a lot of supporting
functions that make working with the ndarrary very easy.
*Arrays are very frequently used in data science,where speed and resources are very
important.
*Numpy ecxels in handling large datasets,making it incredibly valuable for tasks
involving complex mathematical operations,data processing and machine learning
model devolopment.

DATA SCIENCE: It is a branch of computer science where we study how to store,use


and analyze data for deriving information from it.

WHY IS NUMPY FASTER THAN LISTS?


*Numpy arrays are stored at one continous place in memory unlike lists,so processes
can access and manipulate the very effectiveley.
*This behaviour is called locality of reference in computer science.
*This is the main reason why numpy is faster than lists.Also it is optimized to
work with latest cpu architectures.

USES OF NUMPY:
1.Arithmetic operations
2.Statistical operations
3.Bitwise operators
4.Copying &Viewing arrays
5.Stacking
6.Matrix operations
7.Linear algebra
8.Broadcasting
9.Mathematical operations
10.Seraching,Sorting&Counting

WHICH LANGUAGE IS NUMPY WRITTEN IN?


*Numpy is a python library and it is written partially in python,but most of the
parts that require fast computation are written in C,C++
Example Problem-
*To solve computer vision and MRI,etc.So far that machine learning model want to
use images,but the machine learning model cant read image dirctly.So need to
convert image into numeric form and the fit into numpy array.Which is best way to
give data to machine laerning model.
