Installing NumPy

Before using NumPy, you need to install it in your Python environment. One of the easiest ways to install NumPy is by using the Python package manager, pip.

Installing NumPy Using pip (Recommended Method)

To install NumPy, you can use the following command in your terminal or command prompt:

pip install numpy

This will automatically download and install the latest version of NumPy and its dependencies from the Python Package Index (PyPI).

Verifying the Installation

Once the installation is complete, you can verify that NumPy has been installed successfully by running the following Python command:

import numpy as np print(np.__version__)

If NumPy is installed correctly, it will print the version number of the NumPy package.
