Hi All, On behalf of the NumPy team I am pleased to announce that NumPy 1.18.0 has been released. In addition to the usual bug fixes, this NumPy release cleans up and documents the new random C-API, expires a large number of old deprecations, and improves the appearance and organization of the documentation. The Python versions supported are 3.5-3.8. This is the last NumPy release series that will support Python 3.5. The highlights of this release are: - the C-API for ``numpy.random`` has been defined and documented, - basic infrastructure for linking with 64 bit BLAS and LAPACK libraries, - many documentation improvements. Downstream developers should use Cython >= 0.29.14 for Python 3.8 support and OpenBLAS >= 3.7 to avoid wrong results on the Skylake architecture. The NumPy Wheels for this release can be downloaded from PyPI https://pypi.org/project/numpy/1.18.0/, source archives and release notes are available from Github https://github.com/numpy/numpy/releases/tag/v1.18.0. *Highlights* - The C-API for ``numpy.random`` has been defined and documented. - Basic infrastructure for linking with 64 bit BLAS and LAPACK libraries. - Many documentation improvements. *Contributors* A total of 114 people contributed to this release.
