    Study Notes

    Introduction to NumPy

    • The main purpose of NumPy is to provide support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays.

    History of NumPy

    • NumPy was created by Travis Oliphant.

    Memory Storage

    • NumPy arrays are stored in a contiguous block of memory.
    • This behavior is called row-major order.

    NumPy Timeline

    • NumPy was created in 2005.
