There is a phenomenon in the Python programming language that affects the efficiency of data representation and memory. I call it the "invisible line." This invisible line might seem innocuous at ...

With Python and NumPy getting lots of exposure lately, I'll show how to use those tools to build a simple feed-forward neural network. Over the past few months, the use of the Python programming ...

NumPy is known for being fast, but could it go even faster? Here’s how to use Cython to accelerate array iterations in NumPy. NumPy gives Python users a wickedly fast library for working with data in ...

But in many cases, it doesn’t have to be an either/or proposition. Properly optimized, Python applications can run with surprising speed—perhaps not as fast as Java or C, but fast enough for web ...
