Hello Friends!!!
In this article, we are going to learn more methods of NumPy module. At the end of this article, you will be able to work on,

• ones
• zeros

So, let's start with these methods, these two methods are powerful as it is generally used to build feature vector with some default values while developing deep learning models.

• numpy.ones() - method returns an array with default value 1.0 with given shape or we can say newly returned array filled with 1.0 or 1 based on data type and shape.
• Syntax: numpy.ones(shape, dtype=None, order='C')
• Here, shape - is the shape of an array that you want to retrieve.
• dtype - is an optional argument, represents the data type of an array that you want to retrieve, the default data type is float.
• order{'C','F'} - is an optional argument, represents whether to store multi - dim array in C-style or Fortran style. C-style represents row-major and Fortran-style represents column-major in memory. 
• It returns ndarray object in the form of an array with the given shape, order and data type.

Let's move to another method.

• numpy.zeros() - method returns an array with default value 0.0, with given shape or we can say newly returned array filled with 0.0 or 0 based on data type and shape.
• Syntax: numpy.zeros(shape,dtype=float,order='C') 
• Here, shape - is the shape of an array that you want to retrieve.
• dtype - is an optional argument, represents the data type of an array that you want to retrieve, the default data type is float.
• order{'C','F'} - is an optional argument, represents whether to store multi - dim array in C-style or Fortran style. C-style represents row-major and Fortran-style represents column-major in memory. 
• It returns ndarray object in the form of an array with the given shape, order and data type.

Let's take an example of the above methods:

Helloooo Friends!!!

In the previous article, we have seen Bayes' theorem now we are going to learn Naive Bayes' classifiers.

• It is based on Bayes' theorem.
• It gives a strong predicted answer by applying Bayes' theorem. So, it is known as Naive Bayes' classifier.

Now, let's start with How does it work?

Let's take an example if we want to approve an application for a credit card, we need to check the age of a person, an income of a person, credit score, year of employment of a person, debts of a person, etc. Now we have two possibilities, approved or not approved. So, if we consider our outcomes as Res=1 if approved and Res=0 if not approved.

Add this problem to Bayes' equation so our problem with formula becomes something like:

Fig. 1 Whether to approve the application of credit card or not using Bayes' Theorem

Now we get the result Res=1 if the P(Res = 1 | x1,....,xn) > P(Res = 0 | x1,....,xn) otherwise Res=0.
P(Res = 1) is the prior probability, it works without knowing the values of x. (Here, x = {x1,x2,..., xn}).  So, that it works for P(Res = 0) + P(Res = 1) = 1. As we all know the total probability is 1. 
Next thing that we can to consider, P(Res | x1,....,xn) is class likelihood is the conditional probability that is Res has associated value of x.

And lastly, we have evidence or marginal probability is P(x1,....,xn) and is work when we consider the value of x, and we do not think whether the value of x is positive or negative.

Afterward, we can get the posterior probability is the combination of prior and result of Bayes' rule. So, as we have already discussed about that but again we think in the formula for our example with posterior probability is something like

Fig. 2 Posterior Probability

And Bayes' classifier chooses the result with the highest posterior probability from all the result. See the below formula for Bayes' classifier.

Fig. 3 Bayes' Classifier

So, in a simple meaning of Bayes' classifier, it is based on conditional probability and Bayes' rule, check for the posterior probability and choose the maximum or highest posterior probability to achieve the Classification task.

Now it is simple, isn't it? I hope you enjoy and learn this classifier easily.

Hello Friends!!!
Let's start again with NumPy module.
Today's methods for this module are mentioned below and at the end of this article, you will be able to manage numpy array with these methods.

• linspace
• empty

Linspace

Hello Friends!!! Welcome again,
Today we are going to discuss more methods of NumPy module. I hope you all do well with NumPy. So, let's start with NumPy and learn some more methods.

• numpy.delete - this method is used to remove elements from an array. it returns a new array with sub-array along with axis that is deleted.
• Syntax: numpy.delete(array,index,axis=None)
• Here, array - represents an array from which you want to remove elements.
• index - represents indexes of sub-arrays to remove along the specified axis. it may be any object.
• axis - is an optional parameter. represents an axis along which to delete the sub-array defined in an index argument. 
• It returns a ndarray. A copy of an array with the elements specified by the index removed.
• Example,

• numpy.concatenate - this method is used to join different arrays along with an existing axis.
• Syntax: numpy.concatenate((ar1, ar2, ...),axis=0,out=None)
• Here, ar1, ar2 - represents a sequence of arrays, all the array must have the same shape.
• axis - is an optional argument, represents axis along which arrays will be joined. here default value of this parameter is 0.
• out - is an optional parameter, it is ndarray object. represents the destination to place the result.
• It returns ndarray object after concatenation of arrays. 
• Example,  

These are methods of NumPy for this article that's it, in next article we will learn more methods.
Happy Learning & Coding...☺😊

Hello Friends!!!
This article takes some time, as I do work on some other articles also. Let's again work on NumPy, Kudos you all have learned some methods already from other articles of this module successfully. Now let's start with new methods with examples.

• numpy.append - This method is used to add (append)new values in an array at the end. 

• Syntax: numpy.append(array,values,axis=None)
• Here, array - is array-like values to be appended to the copy of the main array.
• values - is array-like values to be appended to the copy of the first argument array. it should be the same shape as the first argument has.
• axis - is an optional argument. it is used to set the axis on which array and values are to be appended.

• It returns ndarray object. copy array with values to the axis and append to ndarray.
• Example,
• It also gives ValueError, if axis of the array and values are different.

Hello Friends!!!

In this article, we are going to discuss NumPy methods. In the previous article, we have learned NumPy attributes. (If you did not know different attributes of NumPy, please refer first) Now we are going to start different methods of the NumPy module.

• numpy.arange - it returns numbers. it returns number in a sequence and defines an array of those numbers. it is equivalent to range (python in-built function).
• Syntax: numpy.arange([start],stop,[step],dtype=None)
• Here, start - is an optional argument. it defines start interval, the default start is 0.
• stop - is compulsory, it is ending interval.
• step - is also an optional parameter, it defines that with which value adjacent value is generated or increased.
• dtype - is compulsory, but it also has the default value i.e. None. it represents data type of an array.

• It returns ndarray object. i.e. array with type ndarray. 
• Example, 
• numpy.array - it returns an array.  
• Syntax: numpy.array(object,dtype=None,copy=True,order='K',subok=False,ndmin=0)
• Here, object - is a compulsory argument. in this argument, we need to pass any object that exposes an array interface.
• dtype - is optional. it represents any desired type of array elements.
• copy - is optional. if it is set as True, the object is copied.
• order -is an optional argument. order maybe 'K', 'A', 'C', 'F' etc. is used to specify memory order. i.e. how elements are stored in memory. Here, K and A are unchanged and based on C and F order. C order means row-wise and F order means column-wise elements storing. default order is 'K'.
• subok - is an optional argument. if this argument is set as True, it generates subclass array. otherwise it forced to be a base - class array. by default, it creates the base - class array.
• ndmin - is an optional argument, describes the minimum number of dimensions of a resulting array. 
• It returns ndarray object. 
• Example, 

We will learn more methods in the next part of the article, through this article you can learn these two methods to create an array by using numpy.

Happy Coding...!!!☺

Hello Friends!!!
In this article, we are going to discuss NumPy objects. In the previous article, we learned about NumPy and how to install NumPy? Now, Let's start with the NumPy module.

The main objective of the NumPy module is a homogeneous multidimensional array. All elements are of the same type, array indexed by a tuple of non - negative integer. In NumPy dimensions are called axes.

There is a class ndarray in NumPy. It works as an alias array.

The NumPy array is not the same as Python array, as python array only works with one - dimensional array.

Let's start with some attributes of ndarray object.

ndarray.ndim - it represents the number of axes of an array (here, axes is the dimension of array).
ndarray.shape - it also represents the dimension of array, but it shows tuple of integers which indicate size of different dimensions. For example (rows, cols) here, rows mean the first dimension of array and cols mean the second dimension of the array. But shape and ndim both are different attribute shape represents tuple and the length of tuple is represented by axes i.e. ndim.
ndarray.size - it represents the total number of elements of array.
ndarray.dtype - it represents the data type of elements in the array.
ndarray.itemsize - it represents the size in bytes of each element of an array.
ndarray.data - it represents the buffer containing actual elements of an array. we need not to use this attribute.

Example:


So, These are some important attributes in NumPy.

In the next article, we will learn about different methods of NumPy. All the best....👍
