Summary
In this chapter, we installed NumPy, SciPy, matplotlib, and IPython that we will be using in tutorials. We got a vector addition program working and convinced ourselves that NumPy offers superior performance. In addition, we explored the available documentation and online resources.
In the next chapter, Chapter 2, NumPy Arrays, we will take a look under the hood of NumPy and explore some fundamental concepts including arrays and data types.
