# 100 numpy exercises
This is a collection of exercises that have been collected in the numpy mailing list, on stack overflow
and in the numpy documentation. The goal of this collection is to offer a quick reference for both old
and new users but also to provide a set of exercises for those who teach.
If you find an error or think you've a better way to solve some of them, feel
free to open an issue at <https://github.com/rougier/numpy-100>
