Here’s how to use Cython to accelerate array iterations in NumPy. NumPy gives Python users a wickedly fast library for working with data in matrixes. If you want, for instance, to generate a ...

This NumPy version performs admirably, clocking in at around 28.77 ns per element -- almost two times faster than the pure Python rendition. Comparison established -- we have a clear winner. However, ...
