Installing Numpy on Linux using Conda

If you want the installation to be done through conda, you can use the below command:

conda install -c anaconda numpy

Type in “y” for yes when prompted.

You will get a similar message once the installation is complete

Make sure you follow the best practices for installation using conda as:

• Use an environment for installation rather than in the base environment using the below command:

conda create -n my-env
conda activate my-env

Note: If your preferred method of installation is conda-forge, use the below command:

conda config --env --add channels conda-forge

Python NumPy is a general-purpose array processing package that provides tools for handling n-dimensional arrays. It provides various computing tools such as comprehensive mathematical functions, linear algebra routines. NumPy provides both the flexibility of Python and the speed of well-optimized compiled C code. Its easy-to-use syntax makes it highly accessible and productive for programmers from any background.
