NumPy: An Overview

What is NumPy?
NumPy (Numerical Python) is a powerful library in Python used for numerical computations. It
provides support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a collection of
mathematical functions to operate on these arrays efficiently.

Why Should We Use NumPy?


1. Performance: NumPy arrays are faster and more efficient than Python lists due to their optimized
C-based backend.
2. Memory Efficiency: Uses less memory compared to lists for storing large datasets.
3. Convenience: Provides built-in mathematical functions, making operations easy and concise.
4. Vectorization: Allows element-wise operations without explicit loops, enhancing speed.
5. Interoperability: Easily integrates with other Python libraries like Pandas, SciPy, and TensorFlow.

Creating 2D and 3D Arrays in NumPy

Step 1: Install and Import NumPy


import numpy as np

Step 2: Create a 2D Array


# Creating a 2D array (Matrix)
array_2d = [Link]([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])
print("2D Array:")
print(array_2d)

Output:
2D Array:
[[1 2 3]
[4 5 6]]

Step 3: Create a 3D Array


# Creating a 3D array
array_3d = [Link]([[[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]], [[7, 8, 9], [10, 11, 12]]])
print("3D Array:")
print(array_3d)

Output:
3D Array:
[[[ 1 2 3]
[ 4 5 6]]

[[ 7 8 9]
[10 11 12]]]

Conclusion
NumPy is an essential library for handling large-scale numerical data efficiently. By using NumPy,
we can create and manipulate arrays with ease, making it an indispensable tool for data science,
machine learning, and scientific computing.
