In this course, you'll continue developing your data science skills in Python by working with one of the most fundamental data science librariesโNumPy. You'll create NumPy arrays, load and save NumPy data, and analyze data in arrays. You'll also manipulate and modify data in those arrays.
This is the second course in a multi-course Specialization. All of the courses in this Specialization require that you use the provided virtual machine, which includes an installation of Python and data science libraries. The course setup instructions provided in the first course go into more detail about the hardware and software requirements.
The foundation of data science in Pythonยฎ is NumPy. Most of your work will involve NumPy, whether directly or indirectly. So, you'll leverage the power of this library to manage your data and extract useful insights from that data.
