This is the beginner Python NumPy exercises #2 and in this video, we walk through a few examples on how to create NumPy Array from scratch using NumPy functions. This video follows the lecture ( • How to Create Arrays and Functions in... ) so I suggest you watch the lecture first, then try to do exercises on your own before watching this video for the solutions. All python notebooks and links to the lecture video are above.
Creating NumPy arrays is especially important for any data analytics or data science work. We’ll go through a few interactive examples and dive right into creating NumPy arrays using various functions like zeros(). ones(), full(), arange(), linspace(), random.random(), random.normal(), random.randint(), eye(), and empty(). I end with a short exercise on NumPy data types that could be used to create the arrays.
