You may have heard about NumPy and wondered why it seems so essential to data analysis in Python. What makes NumPy seemingly end up everywhere in statistical calculations with Python? Here are some ...

There is a phenomenon in the Python programming language that affects the efficiency of data representation and memory. I call it the "invisible line." This invisible line might seem innocuous at ...

[Zoltán] sends in his very interesting implementation of a NumPy-like library for micropython called ulab. He had a project in MicroPython that needed a very fast FFT on a micro controller, and was ...

Python is convenient and flexible, yet notably slower than other languages for raw computational speed. The Python ecosystem has compensated with tools that make crunching numbers at scale in Python ...

Create an rng object with np.random.default_rng(), you can seed it for reproducible results. You can draw samples from probability distributions, including from the binomial and normal distributions.

I’ve already made the argument that numerical models (using computer code) should be an integral part of the introductory physics course. But what if you don’t know where to start? Suppose you are ...

NumPy (Numerical Python) is an open-source library for the Python programming language. It is used for scientific computing and working with arrays. Apart from its multidimensional array object, it ...

Numerical calculations are grand. Of course, they are just another form of normal calculations - like I have said before. So, I have mostly used [VPython](http ...
