NumPy Exercises, Practice, Solutions

Learn Python NumPy

NumPy is a fundamental Python library for scientific computing, offering a multidimensional array object and various routines for fast array operations. It supports mathematical, logical, shape manipulation, sorting, I/O, Fourier transforms, linear algebra, statistics, random simulations, and more.

The best way to learn is through practice and exercise. Here, you can practice NumPy concepts with exercises ranging from basic to complex, each accompanied by a sample solution and explanation. It is recommended to attempt these exercises on your own before checking the solutions.

We hope these exercises enhance your NumPy coding skills. Currently, the following sections are available, and more exercises are being added. Happy coding!
