From NumPy To NumCpp – A Quick Start Guide
This quick start guide is meant as a very brief overview of some of the things that can be done with NumCpp. For a full breakdown of everything available in the NumCpp library please visit the Full Documentation.
CONTAINERS
The main data structure in NumCpp is the NdArray. It is inherently a 2D array class, with 1D arrays being implemented as 1xN arrays. There is also a DataCube class that is provided as a convenience container for storing an array of 2D NdArrays, but it has limited usefulness past a simple container.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
a = np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]]) |
nc::NdArray<int> a = { {1, 2}, {3, 4}, {5, 6} } |
a.reshape([2, 3]) |
a.reshape(2, 3) |
a.astype(np.double) |
a.astype<double>() |
INITIALIZERS
Many initializer functions are provided that return NdArrays for common needs.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
np.linspace(1, 10, 5) |
nc::linspace<dtype>(1, 10, 5) |
np.arange(3, 7) |
nc::arange<dtype>(3, 7) |
np.eye(4) |
nc::eye<dtype>(4) |
np.zeros([3, 4]) |
nc::zeros<dtype>(3, 4) |
nc::NdArray<dtype>(3, 4) a = 0 |
|
np.ones([3, 4]) |
nc::ones<dtype>(3, 4) |
nc::NdArray<dtype>(3, 4) a = 1 |
|
np.nans([3, 4]) |
nc::nans(3, 4) |
nc::NdArray<double>(3, 4) a = nc::constants::nan |
|
np.empty([3, 4]) |
nc::empty<dtype>(3, 4) |
nc::NdArray<dtype>(3, 4) a |
SLICING/BROADCASTING
NumCpp offers NumPy style slicing and broadcasting.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
a[2, 3] |
a(2, 3) |
a[2:5, 5:8] |
a(nc::Slice(2, 5), nc::Slice(5, 8)) |
a({2, 5}, {5, 8}) |
|
a[:, 7] |
a(a.rSlice(), 7) |
a[a > 5] |
a[a > 0] |
a[a > 5] = 0 |
a.putMask(a > 5, 0) |
RANDOM
The random module provides simple ways to create random arrays.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
np.random.seed(666) |
nc::random::seed(666) |
np.random.randn(3, 4) |
nc::random::randN<double>(nc::Shape(3, 4)) |
nc::random::randN<double>({3, 4}) |
|
np.random.randint(0, 10, [3, 4]) |
nc::random::randInt<int>(nc::Shape(3, 4), 0, 10) |
nc::random::randInt<int>({3, 4}, 0, 10) |
|
np.random.rand(3, 4) |
nc::random::rand<double>(nc::Shape(3,4)) |
nc::random::rand<double>({3, 4}) |
|
np.random.choice(a, 3) |
nc::random::choice(a, 3) |
CONCATENATION
Many ways to concatenate NdArray are available.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
np.stack([a, b, c], axis=0) |
nc::stack({a, b, c}, nc::Axis::ROW) |
np.vstack([a, b, c]) |
nc::vstack({a, b, c}) |
np.hstack([a, b, c]) |
nc::hstack({a, b, c}) |
np.append(a, b, axis=1) |
nc::append(a, b, nc::Axis::COL) |
DIAGONAL, TRIANGULAR, AND FLIP
The following return new NdArrays.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
np.diagonal(a) |
nc::diagonal(a) |
np.triu(a) |
nc::triu(a) |
np.tril(a) |
nc::tril(a) |
np.flip(a, axis=0) |
nc::flip(a, nc::Axis::ROW) |
np.flipud(a) |
nc::flipud(a) |
np.fliplr(a) |
nc::fliplr(a) |
ITERATION
NumCpp follows the idioms of the C++ STL providing iterator pairs to iterate on arrays in different fashions.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
for value in a |
for(auto it = a.begin(); it < a.end(); ++it) |
for(auto& value : a) |
LOGICAL
Logical FUNCTIONS in NumCpp behave the same as NumPy.
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
np.where(a > 5, a, b) |
nc::where(a > 5, a, b) |
np.any(a) |
nc::any(a) |
np.all(a) |
nc::all(a) |
np.logical_and(a, b) |
nc::logical_and(a, b) |
np.logical_or(a, b) |
nc::logical_or(a, b) |
np.isclose(a, b) |
nc::isclose(a, b) |
np.allclose(a, b) |
nc::allclose(a, b) |
COMPARISONS
| NumPy | NumCpp |
|---|---|
np.equal(a, b) |
nc::equal(a, b) |
a == b |
|

|
rows, cols = np.nonzero(a) |
auto [rows, cols] = nc::nonzero(a) |
