KEY IMPORTS
We’ll use shorthand in this cheat sheet Import these to start
arr - A numpy Array object import numpy as np

I M P O RT I N G/ E X P O RT I N G arr.T - Transposes arr (rows become columns and S C A L A R M AT H

np.loadtxt('file.txt') - From a text file vice versa) np.add(arr,1) - Add 1 to each array element
np.genfromtxt('file.csv',delimiter=',') arr.reshape(3,4) - Reshapes arr to 3 rows, 4 np.subtract(arr,2) - Subtract 2 from each array
- From a CSV file columns without changing data element
np.savetxt('file.txt',arr,delimiter=' ') arr.resize((5,6)) - Changes arr shape to 5x6 np.multiply(arr,3) - Multiply each array
- Writes to a text file and fills new values with 0 element by 3
np.savetxt('file.csv',arr,delimiter=',') np.divide(arr,4) - Divide each array element by
- Writes to a CSV file A D D I N G/ R E M OV I N G E L E M E N TS 4 (returns np.nan for division by zero)
np.append(arr,values) - Appends values to end np.power(arr,5) - Raise each array element to
C R E AT I N G A R R AYS of arr the 5th power
np.array([1,2,3]) - One dimensional array np.insert(arr,2,values) - Inserts values into
np.array([(1,2,3),(4,5,6)]) - Two dimensional arr before index 2 V E C TO R M AT H
array np.delete(arr,3,axis=0) - Deletes row on index np.add(arr1,arr2) - Elementwise add arr2 to
np.zeros(3) - 1D array of length 3 all values 0 3 of arr arr1
np.ones((3,4)) - 3x4 array with all values 1 np.delete(arr,4,axis=1) - Deletes column on np.subtract(arr1,arr2) - Elementwise subtract
np.eye(5) - 5x5 array of 0 with 1 on diagonal index 4 of arr arr2 from arr1
(Identity matrix) np.multiply(arr1,arr2) - Elementwise multiply
np.linspace(0,100,6) - Array of 6 evenly divided C O M B I N I N G/S P L I T T I N G arr1 by arr2
values from 0 to 100 np.concatenate((arr1,arr2),axis=0) - Adds np.divide(arr1,arr2) - Elementwise divide arr1
np.arange(0,10,3) - Array of values from 0 to less arr2 as rows to the end of arr1 by arr2
than 10 with step 3 (eg [0,3,6,9]) np.concatenate((arr1,arr2),axis=1) - Adds np.power(arr1,arr2) - Elementwise raise arr1
np.full((2,3),8) - 2x3 array with all values 8 arr2 as columns to end of arr1 raised to the power of arr2
np.random.rand(4,5) - 4x5 array of random floats np.split(arr,3) - Splits arr into 3 sub-arrays np.array_equal(arr1,arr2) - Returns True if the
between 0-1 np.hsplit(arr,5) - Splits arr horizontally on the arrays have the same elements and shape
np.random.rand(6,7)*100 - 6x7 array of random 5th index np.sqrt(arr) - Square root of each element in the
floats between 0-100 array
np.random.randint(5,size=(2,3)) - 2x3 array I N D E X I N G/S L I C I N G/S U B S E T T I N G np.sin(arr) - Sine of each element in the array
with random ints between 0-4 arr[5] - Returns the element at index 5 np.log(arr) - Natural log of each element in the
arr[2,5] - Returns the 2D array element on index array
I N S P E C T I N G P R O P E RT I E S [2][5] np.abs(arr) - Absolute value of each element in
arr.size - Returns number of elements in arr arr[1]=4 - Assigns array element on index 1 the the array
arr.shape - Returns dimensions of arr (rows, value 4 np.ceil(arr) - Rounds up to the nearest int
columns) arr[1,3]=10 - Assigns array element on index np.floor(arr) - Rounds down to the nearest int
arr.dtype - Returns type of elements in arr [1][3] the value 10 np.round(arr) - Rounds to the nearest int
arr.astype(dtype) - Convert arr elements to arr[0:3] - Returns the elements at indices 0,1,2
type dtype (On a 2D array: returns rows 0,1,2) STAT I ST I C S
arr.tolist() - Convert arr to a Python list arr[0:3,4] - Returns the elements on rows 0,1,2 np.mean(arr,axis=0) - Returns mean along
