NumPy is the fundamental package for scientific computing with Python. It contains among other things:

  • → a powerful N-dimensional array object
  • → sophisticated (broadcasting) functions
  • → tools for integrating C/C++ and Fortran code
  • → useful linear algebra, Fourier transform, and random number capabilities

Besides its obvious scientific uses, NumPy can also be used as an efficient multi-dimensional container of generic data. Arbitrary data-types can be defined and this allows NumPy to seamlessly and speedily integrate with a wide variety of projects. We are going to explore numpy through a simple example, implementing the Game of Life.

Numpy is slanted toward scientific computing and we'll consider in this section the game of life by John Conway which is one of the earliest example of cellular automata (see figure below). Those cellular automaton can be conveniently considered as array of cells that are connected together through the notion of neighbours. We'll show in the following sections implementation of this game using pure python and numpy in order to illustrate main differences with python and numpy.

Note

This is an excerpt from wikipedia entry on Cellular Automaton.

The Game of Life, also known simply as Life, is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. It is the best-known example of a cellular automaton. The "game" is actually a zero-player game, meaning that its evolution is determined by its initial state, needing no input from human players. One interacts with the Game of Life by creating an initial configuration and observing how it evolves.

The universe of the Game of Life is an infinite two-dimensional orthogonal grid of square cells, each of which is in one of two possible states, live or dead. Every cell interacts with its eight neighbours, which are the cells that are directly horizontally, vertically, or diagonally adjacent. At each step in time, the following transitions occur:

  1. Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by needs caused by underpopulation.
  2. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
  3. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives, unchanged, to the next generation.
  4. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell.

The initial pattern constitutes the 'seed' of the system. The first generation is created by applying the above rules simultaneously to every cell in the seed – births and deaths happen simultaneously, and the discrete moment at which this happens is sometimes called a tick. (In other words, each generation is a pure function of the one before.) The rules continue to be applied repeatedly to create further generations.

We'll first use a very simple setup and more precisely, we'll use the glider pattern that is known to move one step diagonally in 4 iterations as illustrated below:

figures/glider-00.png

t = 0

  figures/glider-01.png

t = 1

  figures/glider-02.png

t = 2

  figures/glider-03.png

t = 3

  figures/glider-04.png

t = 4

This property will help us debug our scripts.

The way of python

Note

We could have used the more efficient python array interface but people may be more familiar with the list object.

In pure python, we can code the Game of Life using a list of lists representing the board where cells are supposed to evolve:

>>> Z = [[0,0,0,0,0,0],
         [0,0,0,1,0,0],
         [0,1,0,1,0,0],
         [0,0,1,1,0,0],
         [0,0,0,0,0,0],
         [0,0,0,0,0,0]]

This board possesses a 0 border that allows to accelerate things a bit by avoiding to have specific tests for borders when counting the number of neighbours. First step is to count neighbours:

def compute_neigbours(Z):
    shape = len(Z), len(Z[0])
    N  = [[0,]*(shape[0])  for i in range(shape[1])]
    for x in range(1,shape[0]-1):
        for y in range(1,shape[1]-1):
            N[x][y] = Z[x-1][y-1]+Z[x][y-1]+Z[x+1][y-1] \
                    + Z[x-1][y]            +Z[x+1][y]   \
                    + Z[x-1][y+1]+Z[x][y+1]+Z[x+1][y+1]
    return N

To iterate one step in time, we then simply count the number of neighbours for each internal cell and we update the whole board according to the 4 rules:

def iterate(Z):
    N = compute_neighbours(Z)
    for x in range(1,shape[0]-1):
        for y in range(1,shape[1]-1):
             if Z[x][y] == 1 and (N[x][y] < 2 or N[x][y] > 3):
                 Z[x][y] = 0
             elif Z[x][y] == 0 and N[x][y] == 3:
                 Z[x][y] = 1
    return Z

Note

The show command is supplied witht he script.

Using a dedicated display function, we can check the program's correct:

>>> show(Z)
[0, 0, 1, 0]
[1, 0, 1, 0]
[0, 1, 1, 0]
[0, 0, 0, 0]

>>> for i in range(4): iterate(Z)
>>> show(Z)
[0, 0, 0, 0]
[0, 0, 0, 1]
[0, 1, 0, 1]
[0, 0, 1, 1]

The way of numpy

Note

There exists many more different ways to create a numpy array.

The first thing to do is to create the proper numpy array to hold the cells. This can be done very easily with:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> Z = np.array([[0,0,0,0,0,0],
                  [0,0,0,1,0,0],
                  [0,1,0,1,0,0],
                  [0,0,1,1,0,0],
                  [0,0,0,0,0,0],
                  [0,0,0,0,0,0]])

Note

For a complete review on numpy data types, check the documentation.

Note that we did not specify the data type of the array and thus, numpy will choose one for us. Since all elements are integers, numpy will then choose an integer data type. This can be easily checked using:

>>> print(Z.dtype)
int64

We can also check the shape of the array to make sure it is 6x6:

>>> print(Z.shape)
(6, 6)

Each element of Z can be accessed using a row and a column index (in that order):

>>> print(Z[0,5])
0

Note

This element access is actually called indexing and this is very powerful tool for vectorized computation.

But even better, we can also access a subpart of the array using the slice notation:

>>> print(Z[1:5,1:5])
[[0 0 1 0]
 [1 0 1 0]
 [0 1 1 0]
 [0 0 0 0]]

In the example above, we actually extract a subpart of Z ranging from rows 1 to 5 and columns 1 to 5. It is important to understand at this point that this is really a subpart of Z in the sense that any change to this subpart will have immediate impact on Z:

>>> A = Z[1:5,1:5]
>>> A[0,0] = 9
>>> print(A)
[[9 0 1 0]
 [1 0 1 0]
 [0 1 1 0]
 [0 0 0 0]]
>>> print(Z)
[[0 0 0 0 0 0]
 [0 9 0 1 0 0]
 [0 1 0 1 0 0]
 [0 0 1 1 0 0]
 [0 0 0 0 0 0]
 [0 0 0 0 0 0]]

We set the value of A[0,0] to 9 and we see immediate change in Z[1,1] because A[0,0] actually corresponds to Z[1,1]. This may seem trivial with such simple arrays, but things can become much more complex (we'll see that later). If in doubt, you can check easily if an array is part of another one:

>>> print(Z.base is None)
True
>>> print(A.base is Z)
True

Counting neighbours

Note

It is not always possible to vectorize computations and it requires generally some experience. You'll acquire this experience by using numpy (of course) but also by asking questions on the mailing list

We now need a function to count the neighbours. We could do it the same way as for the python version, but this would make things very slow because of the nested loops. We would prefer to act on the whole array whenever possible, this is called vectorization.

Ok, let's start then...

First, you need to know that you can manipulate Z as if (and only as if) it was a regular scalar:

>>> print(1+(2*Z+3))
[[4 4 4 4 4 4]
 [4 4 4 6 4 4]
 [4 6 4 6 4 4]
 [4 4 6 6 4 4]
 [4 4 4 4 4 4]
 [4 4 4 4 4 4]]

If you look carefully at the output, you may realize that the ouptut corresponds to the formula above applied individually to each element. Said differently, we have (1+(2*Z+3))[i,j] == (1+(2*Z[i,j]+3)) for any i,j.

Ok, so far, so good. Now what happens if we add Z with one of its subpart, let's say Z[-1:1,-1:1] ?

>>> Z + Z[-1:1,-1:1]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: operands could not be broadcast together with shapes (6,6) (4,4)

This raises a Value Error, but more interestingly, numpy complains about the impossibility of broadcasting the two arrays together. Broadcasting is a very powerful feature of numpy and most of the time, it saves you a lot of hassle. Let's consider for example the following code:

>>> print(Z+1)
[[1 1 1 1 1 1]
 [1 1 1 2 1 1]
 [1 2 1 2 1 1]
 [1 1 2 2 1 1]
 [1 1 1 1 1 1]
 [1 1 1 1 1 1]]

Note

See also the broadcasting section in the numpy documentation.

How can a matrix and a scalar be added together ? Well, they can't. But numpy is smart enough to guess that you actually want to add 1 to each of the element of Z. This concept of broadcasting is quite powerful and it will take you some time before masterizing it fully (if even possible).

However, in the present case (counting neighbours if you remember), we won't use broadcasting (uh ?). But we'll use vectorize computation using the following code:

>>> N = np.zeros(Z.shape, dtype=int)
>>> N[1:-1,1:-1] += (Z[ :-2, :-2] + Z[ :-2,1:-1] + Z[ :-2,2:] +
                     Z[1:-1, :-2]                + Z[1:-1,2:] +
                     Z[2:  , :-2] + Z[2:  ,1:-1] + Z[2:  ,2:])

To understand this code, have a look at the figure below:

figures/neighbours-1.png figures/neighbours-2.png figures/neighbours-3.png
figures/neighbours-4.png figures/neighbours-5.png figures/neighbours-6.png
figures/neighbours-7.png figures/neighbours-8.png figures/neighbours-9.png

What we actually did with the above code is to add all the darker blue squares together. Since they have been chosen carefully, the result will be exactly what we expected. If you want to convince yourself, consider a cell in the lighter blue area of the central sub-figure and check what will the result for a given cell.

Iterate

Note

Note the use of the ravel function that flatten an array. This is necessary since the argwhere function returns flattened indices.

In a first approach, we can write the iterate function using the argwhere method that will give us the indices where a given condition is True.

def iterate(Z):
    # Iterate the game of life : naive version
    # Count neighbours
    N = np.zeros(Z.shape, int)
    N[1:-1,1:-1] += (Z[0:-2,0:-2] + Z[0:-2,1:-1] + Z[0:-2,2:] +
                     Z[1:-1,0:-2]                + Z[1:-1,2:] +
                     Z[2:  ,0:-2] + Z[2:  ,1:-1] + Z[2:  ,2:])
    N_ = N.ravel()
    Z_ = Z.ravel()

    # Apply rules
    R1 = np.argwhere( (Z_==1) & (N_ < 2) )
    R2 = np.argwhere( (Z_==1) & (N_ > 3) )
    R3 = np.argwhere( (Z_==1) & ((N_==2) | (N_==3)) )
    R4 = np.argwhere( (Z_==0) & (N_==3) )

    # Set new values
    Z_[R1] = 0
    Z_[R2] = 0
    Z_[R3] = Z_[R3]
    Z_[R4] = 1

    # Make sure borders stay null
    Z[0,:] = Z[-1,:] = Z[:,0] = Z[:,-1] = 0

Even if this first version does not use nested loops, it is far from optimal because of the use of the 4 argwhere calls that may be quite slow. We can instead take advantages of numpy features the following way.

def iterate_2(Z):
    # Count neighbours
    N = (Z[0:-2,0:-2] + Z[0:-2,1:-1] + Z[0:-2,2:] +
         Z[1:-1,0:-2]                + Z[1:-1,2:] +
         Z[2:  ,0:-2] + Z[2:  ,1:-1] + Z[2:  ,2:])

    # Apply rules
    birth = (N==3) & (Z[1:-1,1:-1]==0)
    survive = ((N==2) | (N==3)) & (Z[1:-1,1:-1]==1)
    Z[...] = 0
    Z[1:-1,1:-1][birth | survive] = 1
    return Z

If you look at the birth and survive lines, you'll see that these two variables are indeed arrays. The right-hand side of these two expressions are in fact logical expressions that will result in boolean arrays (just print them to check). We then set all Z values to 0 (all cells become dead) and we use the birth and survive arrays to conditionally set Z values to 1. And we're done ! Let's test this:

>>> print(Z)
[[0 0 0 0 0 0]
 [0 0 0 1 0 0]
 [0 1 0 1 0 0]
 [0 0 1 1 0 0]
 [0 0 0 0 0 0]
 [0 0 0 0 0 0]]
>>> for i in range(4): iterate_2(Z)
>>> print(Z)
[[0 0 0 0 0 0]
 [0 0 0 0 0 0]
 [0 0 0 0 1 0]
 [0 0 1 0 1 0]
 [0 0 0 1 1 0]
 [0 0 0 0 0 0]]

Getting bigger

While numpy works perfectly with very small arrays, you'll really benefit from numpy power with big to very big arrays. So let us reconsider the game of life with a bigger array. First, we won't initalize the array by hand but initalize it randomly:

>>> Z = np.random.randint(0,2,(256,512))

and we simply iterate as previously:

>>> for i in range(100): iterate(Z)

and display result:

>>> size = np.array(Z.shape)
>>> dpi = 72.0
>>> figsize= size[1]/float(dpi),size[0]/float(dpi)
>>> fig = plt.figure(figsize=figsize, dpi=dpi, facecolor="white")
>>> fig.add_axes([0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0], frameon=False)
>>> plt.imshow(Z,interpolation='nearest', cmap=plt.cm.gray_r)
>>> plt.xticks([]), plt.yticks([])
>>> plt.show()

Easy enough, no ?

A step further

We have reviewed the very basics of numpy so let's move on to more complex (and more fun) things.

Note

Description taken from the Gray-Scott homepage

Reaction and diffusion of chemical species can produce a variety of patterns, reminiscent of those often seen in nature. The Gray Scott equations model such a reaction. For more information on this chemical system see the article Complex Patterns in a Simple System, John E. Pearson, Science, Volume 261, 9 July 1993.

Let's consider two chemical species U and V with respective concentrations u and v and diffusion rates r_u and r_v. V is converted into P with a rate of conversion k. f represents the rate of the process that feeds U and drains U, V and P. We can now write:

Chemical reaction Equations
  • U + 2V \longrightarrow 3V
  • V \longrightarrow P
  • \frac{\partial u}{\partial t} = r_u \nabla^2 u - uv^2 + f(1-u)
  • \frac{\partial v}{\partial t} = r_v \nabla^2 v + uv^2 - (f+k)v
Examples
(click figure to see movie)
figures/bacteria.png figures/fingerprint.png figures/zebra.png

Obviously, you may think we need two arrays, one for U and for V. But since U and V are tighly linked, it may be indeed better to use a single array. Numpy allows to do that with the notion of structured array:

>>> n = 200
>>> Z = np.zeros((n+2,n+2), [('U', np.double),
                             ('V', np.double)])
>>> print(Z.dtype)
[('U', '<f8'), ('V', '<f8')]

The size of the array is (n+2,n+2) since we need the borders when computing the neighbours. However, we'll compute differential equation only in the center part, so we can already creates some useful views of this array:

>>> U,V = Z['U'], Z['V']
>>> u,v = U[1:-1,1:-1], V[1:-1,1:-1]

Next, we need to compute the Laplacian and we'll use a discrete approximation obtained via the finite difference method using the same vectorization as for the Game of Life:

def laplacian(Z):
    return (                 Z[0:-2,1:-1] +
            Z[1:-1,0:-2] - 4*Z[1:-1,1:-1] + Z[1:-1,2:] +
                             Z[2:  ,1:-1] )

Finally, we can iterate the computation after havong choosed some interesting parameters:

for i in range(25000):
    Lu = laplacian(U)
    Lv = laplacian(V)
    uvv = u*v*v
    u += (Du*Lu - uvv +  F   *(1-u))
    v += (Dv*Lv + uvv - (F+k)*v    )

And we're done !

Code documentation

The code is fairly well documented and you can quickly access a specific command from within a python session:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> help(np.ones)
Help on function ones in module numpy.core.numeric:

ones(shape, dtype=None, order='C')
    Return a new array of given shape and type, filled with ones.

    Please refer to the documentation for `zeros` for further details.

    See Also
    --------
    zeros, ones_like

    Examples
    --------
    >>> np.ones(5)
    array([ 1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.])

    >>> np.ones((5,), dtype=np.int)
    array([1, 1, 1, 1, 1])

    >>> np.ones((2, 1))
    array([[ 1.],
           [ 1.]])

    >>> s = (2,2)
    >>> np.ones(s)
    array([[ 1.,  1.],
           [ 1.,  1.]])

Mailing lists

Finally, there is a mailing list where you can ask for help.
