How come? Obviously we are not dealing with a Python list but with a NumPy array. It was mentioned in the Preface that NumPy arrays are specialized data structures for numerical data. We will learn more about NumPy arrays in the next chapter. [ 20 ] Chapter 1 Pop quiz Functioning of the arange function Q1. What does arange(5) do? 1. Creates a Python list of 5 elements with values 1 to 5. 2. Creates a Python list of 5 elements with values 0 to 4. 3. Creates a NumPy array with values 1 to 5. 4. Creates a NumPy array with values 0 to 4.

Have a go hero – continue the analysis The program we used here to compare the speed of NumPy and regular Python is not very scientific.

Transpose() Out: array([[ 0, 4, 8, [ 1, 5, 9, [ 2, 6, 10, [ 3, 7, 11, 5. resize((2,12)) In: b Out: array([[ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11], [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23]]) What just happened? We manipulated the shapes of NumPy arrays using the ravel function, the flatten function, the reshape function, and the resize method. Stacking Arrays can be stacked horizontally, depth-wise, or vertically. We can use, for that purpose, the vstack, dstack, hstack, column_stack, row_stack, and concatenate functions.
