There's nothing wrong with it. I just thought the introduction
to matrices and vectors was a little bit superfluous.
: What aspects of NumPy were you looking for a good tutorial on?
There are some gotcha's when working with Numpy, like the automatic
upcasting of arrays. Numpy can be used to do large scale vector
operations efficiently (eg. multiplying 1000 vectors by a matrix). It
would be nice to explain how to do that as well. Explaining how to
transfer data from Numpy to C and back would also be interesting.
Cheers,
