Python arrays with named dimension and physical units.
Our goal is to provide a library wrapping any array library that supports the Python array API standard, adding named dimensions as well as physical units.
This is an alternative to Xarray's NamedArray
.
The two main differences are
- NamedArray supports
attrs
, which we think add unnecessary complexity while suffering from conceptual problems. - PyDims supports physical units via a
unit
attribute, which we consider central and tightly linked to the concept of an array.
