======================== Announcing NumExpr 2.9.0 ======================== Hi everyone, NumExpr 2.9.0 is a release offering support for latest versions of PyPy. The full test suite should pass now, at least for the Python 3.10 version. Thanks to @27rabbitlt for most of the work and @mgorny and @mattip for providing help and additional fixes. Project documentation is available at: http://numexpr.readthedocs.io/ Changes from 2.8.8 to 2.9.0 --------------------------- * Support for PyPy (see PRs #467 and #740). The full test suite should pass now, at least for the 3.10 version. Thanks to @27rabbitlt for most of the work and @mgorny and @mattip for providing help and additional fixes. Fixes #463. * Fixed more sanitizer issues (see PR #469). Thanks to @27rabbitlt. * Modernized the test suite to avoid some warnings. What's Numexpr? --------------- Numexpr is a fast numerical expression evaluator for NumPy. With it, expressions that operate on arrays (like "3*a+4*b") are accelerated and use less memory than doing the same calculation in Python. It has multi-threaded capabilities, as well as support for Intel's MKL (Math Kernel Library), which allows an extremely fast evaluation of transcendental functions (sin, cos, tan, exp, log...) while squeezing the last drop of performance out of your multi-core processors. Look here for a some benchmarks of numexpr using MKL: https://github.com/pydata/numexpr/wiki/NumexprMKL Its only dependency is NumPy (MKL is optional), so it works well as an easy-to-deploy, easy-to-use, computational engine for projects that don't want to adopt other solutions requiring more heavy dependencies. Where I can find Numexpr? ------------------------- The project is hosted at GitHub in: https://github.com/pydata/numexpr You can get the packages from PyPI as well (but not for RC releases): http://pypi.python.org/pypi/numexpr Documentation is hosted at: http://numexpr.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ Share your experience --------------------- Let us know of any bugs, suggestions, gripes, kudos, etc. you may have. Enjoy data!
