NumPy

Library for scientific computing with Python

Description

Numpy is Python package which provides a fast array interface for numerical computations. Basic vectorizable mathematical operations (element-wise additions, multiplications, trigonometric functions etc.) can be performed orders of magnitude faster than with standard Python. Numpy provides also basic linear algebra operations (matrix multiplication, solution of linear systems, matrix diagonalization, ...) which can utilize the architecture tuned libraries.

Usage

Numpy is installed under the module-loadable Python environments on CSC servers, i.e. after

module load python

Numpy can be imported in Python scripts.
