Please explain x=np.arange(0,3*np.pi,0.1).....ref vedio(30:06)

@edurekaIN

The arange function takes 4 parameters as follows: arange([start,] stop[, step,], dtype=None). So here, in x=np.arange(0,3*np.pi,0.1), 0 is where the values should start from and should go up till 3*np.pi (pi=3.14) and the step size is 0.1.

VidTutorAssistant (GPT-4)

Hey there, @faizahmad6201! In this line of code `x=np.arange(0,3*np.pi,0.1)`, we are using the numpy function `np.arange()` to generate a sequence of numbers. The function takes in three arguments: start, stop, and step. So, here it starts at 0, it stops at `3*np.pi`, and it increments the sequence by 0.1 for each step. This generated sequence is used as the x values on which we evaluate the sine function for the plot. Hope this helps! Please feel free to ask if you have further questions. Happy learning!

sir what is difference between Series, array,list

@edurekaIN

Arrays and lists are both used in Python to store data, but they don't serve exactly the same purposes. They both can be used to store any data type (real numbers, strings, etc), and they both can be indexed and iterated through, but the similarities between the two don't go much further. The main difference between a list and an array is the functions that you can perform to them. For example, you can divide an array by 3, and each number in the array will be divided by 3 and the result will be printed if you request it. If you try to divide a list by 3, Python will tell you that it can't be done, and an error will be thrown. Hope this helps, do subscribe to our channel and stay connected with us. Thanks :)

VidTutorAssistant (GPT-4)

Hello @vikashchandsingh2730, great question! All three terms, Series, Array and List, are used to store data but there are some differences.

A List is a basic data structure in Python that holds an ordered collection of items, i.e., you can store a sequence of items in a list. It's versatile as you can store items of different data types and the size is flexible.

An Array, specifically a numpy array which we discussed in the video, is a grid of values, of the same type, and is indexed by a tuple of nonnegative integers. Numpy arrays are great for numerical operations as they are optimised to perform mathematical operations on large datasets much quicker and more efficiently than Python lists.

A Series, on the other hand, is a one-dimensional labeled array capable of holding any data type. It is a data structure in Pandas (a software library for data manipulation and analysis). A Series cannot contain multiple columns, unlike numpy arrays or Python lists.

Hope that helps explain the differences. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions. Happy learning!

How to get this Numpy 2D Array as input from the user ?

@edurekaIN

Hey Prakhar, "import numpy as N

def main():
A = input()
A = N.array(A)
print(A.shape)

if _name_ == ""__main__"":
main().................and provide input as >>> import numpy as N
>>> A = input()
((1,2),(3,4))
>>> type(A[0][0])
<type 'int'>"

Hope this helps!

VidTutorAssistant (GPT-4)

Hello @prakhar_srivastava_! Great question there. To get 2D array inputs from the user, it's a little different from initializing a normal variable. First, you need to decide the size of the array, let's say n rows and m columns. After that, you'll be using a for loop where for each iteration, you'll ask for the user's input separated by space for m elements, 'n' number of times. Here's a simple snippet to demonstrate:

```python
import numpy as np
n, m = map(int, input("Enter the number of rows and columns separated by space: ").split())
arr = np.array([input("Enter row number "+str(i+1)+" : ").split() for i in range(n)], int)
print("2D Numpy array: ")
print(arr)
```

In the above piece of code, we are first asking the user for the number of rows (n) and columns (m). Then we run a loop 'n' times asking the user to insert 'm' elements. We then convert this list of lists into a numpy array using the `numpy.array()` function. Just replace 'n' and 'm' with your desired row and column lengths. Do remember, I'm using the `split()` function which will expect the user to separate each number by a space. Let me know if this helps! Python is full of amazing modules that make our task much easier, keep exploring. Happy learning!

There is just a small mistake I noticed in the video. I see that you are using python 3 and in python 3 range() does not return a list. It returns a "range" object (which I believe is a generator). Excellent video, thank you!

@edurekaIN

Hey Abdullah, thank you for pointing this out. We will look into this as well. Also, we are glad that you liked our content overall. Do subscribe and stay connected with us. Cheers :)

VidTutorAssistant (GPT-4)

Hello @Abdullah-mg5zl, You are absolutely correct! In Python 3, the range() function indeed returns a "range" object which is more like a generator, unlike Python 2 where it returns an array. I appreciate your keen observation and contribution to enhancing the learning for all. Your feedback not only shows your strong grasping but also your attention to detail. Keep engaging with our content and don't hesitate to share your insights. Happy Learning!


@jasonmyers5939

why would you need the time.time()-start please help

@edurekaIN

Hey Jason, The time.time() function returns the number of seconds since the epoch, as seconds. Note that the "epoch" is defined as the start of January 1st, 1970 in UTC. So the epoch is defined in terms of UTC and establishes a global moment in time. No matter where you are "seconds past epoch" (time.time()) returns the same value at the same moment.

Hope this helps!

VidTutorAssistant (GPT-4)

Hi @jasonmyers5939, great question! We use time.time()-start to calculate the time taken to execute a chunk of code. In this video, we're using it to compare the performance of NumPy arrays and Python lists. Here's how it works: we first store the current time in a variable 'start' using time.time() just before the computation begins. After the computation, we again get the current time with time.time() and subtract 'start' from it. This gives us the total time taken for the computation. It's a handy way of evaluating how quickly different code implementations can function. We use it in the video to demonstrate the efficiency of NumPy arrays compared to lists. I hope this clears your doubt. Keep learning and do not hesitate to ask more questions! Happy coding!

Is there any difference between np.ravel() and np.flatten()

@edurekaIN

Hi Varun, The current API is that:

flatten always returns a copy.
ravel returns a view of the original array whenever possible. This isn't visible in the printed output, but if you modify the array returned by ravel, it may modify the entries in the original array. If you modify the entries in an array returned from flatten this will never happen. ravel will often be faster since no memory is copied, but you have to be more careful about modifying the array it returns.
reshape((-1,)) gets a view whenever the strides of the array allow it even if that means you don't always get a contiguous arra.

VidTutorAssistant (GPT-4)

Hello @Varunsharma-sg2nt, great question there! Yes, there indeed is a difference between np.ravel() and np.flatten() in Numpy.

When array.flatten() is used, it returns a copy of the original array but in a compressed one-dimensional manner. What this means is that altering the new array won’t impact the original array.

On the other hand, numpy.ravel() returns a constricted 1-Dimensional array. A key point to remember here, is this function returns a view of the original array whenever possible. This means if you modify the array returned by np.ravel(), in many cases, it will modify the parent array as well.

So, for practical purposes, if you won't be modifying the array after flattening it, you could effectively use np.ravel() due to its potential for memory efficiency. However, if the flattened array needs to be modified without affecting the parent array, np.flatten() is the way to go.

Remember to consider these factors when choosing between np.ravel() and np.flatten(). And keep those questions coming, they help us all learn and understand more! Happy coding!
