NumPy: Get the numpy version and show numpy build configuration

NumPy: Basic Exercise-1 with Solution

Write a Numpy program to get the Numpy version and show the Numpy build configuration.

Sample Solution :

Python Code :

# Importing the NumPy library with an alias 'np'
import numpy as np

# Printing the version of NumPy installed
print(np.__version__)

# Printing the configuration details of NumPy
print(np.show_config())

Sample Output:

lapack_opt_info:
    library_dirs = ['C:\\projects\\numpy-wheels\\numpy\\build\\openblas']
    define_macros = [('HAVE_CBLAS', None)]
    libraries = ['openblas']
    language = f77
blis_info:
  NOT AVAILABLE
blas_opt_info:
    library_dirs = ['C:\\projects\\numpy-wheels\\numpy\\build\\openblas']
    define_macros = [('HAVE_CBLAS', None)]
    libraries = ['openblas']
    language = f77
openblas_lapack_info:
    library_dirs = ['C:\\projects\\numpy-wheels\\numpy\\build\\openblas']
    define_macros = [('HAVE_CBLAS', None)]
    libraries = ['openblas']
    language = f77
openblas_info:
    library_dirs = ['C:\\projects\\numpy-wheels\\numpy\\build\\openblas']
    define_macros = [('HAVE_CBLAS', None)]
    libraries = ['openblas']
    language = f77
blas_mkl_info:
  NOT AVAILABLE
lapack_mkl_info:
  NOT AVAILABLE
None                         

Explanation:

In the above code –

print(np.__version__): This line prints the version number of the NumPy library being used. The __version__ attribute is a string that contains the library's version information.

print(np.show_config()): This line prints the configuration information of the NumPy library.
