Scipy or Numpy (first)

>>8431984
I fucking love Python. Clear syntax and powerful!

public static void main String(args[])
System.out.println("Java is gay")

or...

print("Python FTW")

If it weren't for enterprise bullshit and Android, that horrific language could just die in peace

>(also what's with the sin(pi) not being equal to zero?! pic related)

floating point, nigga. like 0.1 + 0.2 = .30000000000000001

>>8431984
scipy or numpy? Neither, MATLAB!

>>8431989
what! D: why?

>>8431984
I like Matlab infinitely better

It's ok for bodging something together real quick. I use it all the time for that. However, you quickly get to a point of diminishing returns when you try to do anything halfway serious with it.

Don't get me started on the differences between Python 2 and 3.

First off, stop typing like a 12 year old. Second, numpy and scipy have their uses (check documentation) but you dont just "learn" them, you use their respective functions as you need them. Third, look into matplotlib if you want to graph.

>>8431984
NumPy first. SciPy is built on top of NumPy, so you can use NumPy without knowing anything about SciPy, but the reverse isn't true.

> also what's with the sin(pi) not being equal to zero?
Floating-point. Pi is irrational, so it can't be represented exactly as a floating-point number. np.pi is actually 884279719003555/(2^48).

>>8431984
With Jupitar you can easily use and import numpi or matlab

>>8431987
lol. Try multithreading in python!

>>8432343
import threads

Came here to say this...
>Second, numpy and scipy have their uses (check documentation) but you dont just "learn" them, you use their respective functions as you need them.
...and this...
>Third, look into matplotlib if you want to graph.
...and this.

>>8432343
Who gives a fuck about threads when you have multi-processing?

>>8431984
I really, really hate the way Python treats scope and information hiding in object definitions. I also find it's object handling syntax unintuitive.

It might be my fondness for strongly-typed languages but I seriously can't deal with it.

I know this doesn't relate to MATLAB, but it;s my gripe.

if I'm doing automation tasks with calculations I'll default to Matlab anyway cause it avoids all the pants-on-head retarded gotchas that pop up with python.

If I'm writing anything serious I'll default to C-family languages because I know them well.

>>8433948
pretty sure it's
import threading
Haven't checked in a while.

Or you could just use cython or its alternatives

I'm still trying to figure out why everyone keeps saying performance matters.
