Learn to handle dates, times, and timedeltas in NumPy by creating, comparing, and computing dates and time intervals, including business day functions for time-based data and time series analysis.
Explore NumPy date time support functions, converting date times to strings and back with date time 64, and examine date time data for resolution and step size.
Create numpy data types with dtype and int32, convert from floats noting loss of decimals, and use rec dot format underscore parser for structured dtypes and mixed tuples.
Explore numpy data type information with finfo and iinfo to reveal the min and max values for float32 and int32.
Learn how numpy uses type name and type code to identify unicode, integers, booleans, strings, and complex numbers, and determine the minimum size type for mixed data.
Unlock NumPy's power with rounding, differencing, trigonometric, logarithmic, and rational tools, plus floating point accuracy, complex numbers, and fast min/max, all vectorized in one line of code.
Explore numpy’s trigonometric functions—sine, cosine, tangent, inverse functions, and arctan2—along with conversions between degrees and radians, the unwrap helper, and suppressing scientific notation for readable output.
Explore NumPy's special functions, including the modified Bessel function I0 and the sinc function, with practical examples and a manual derivation using a series.
Explore rational routines by computing lowest common multiple and greatest common divisor using example arrays. See how lcm yields the smallest common multiple and gcd finds the greatest common divisor.
Explore element-wise numpy arithmetic operations, including add, subtract, multiply, divide, reciprocal, positive and negative, power and float power, floor divide, true divide, mod, modf, and remainder.
Explore how NumPy handles complex numbers using angle, real, imag, and conjugate functions, including np.angle, np.real, np.imag, np.conj, and np.conjugate, and comparing with arc tan.
Discover extrema finding in numpy, using np.maximum for element-wise maxima and np.minimum for minima, and fmax or nanmax to handle missing values.
