A Gentle Introduction to N-Dimensional Arrays in Python with NumPy
Arrays are the main data structure used in machine learning. In Python, arrays from the NumPy library, called N-dimensional arrays or the ndarray, are used as the primary data structure for representing data. In this tutorial, you will discover the N-dimensional array in NumPy for representing numerical and manipulating data in Python. After completing this tutorial, you will know: What the ndarray is and how to create and inspect an array in Python; Key functions for creating new empty arrays and arrays with default values; and How to combine existing arrays to create new arrays.
