NumPy skill signals
Evaluate the complete numerical-computing workflow
Measure how candidates create and manipulate arrays, apply vectorised operations, solve numerical problems, analyse data, manage memory, and improve computational performance.
Indexing, slicing and selection
Test basic indexing, multidimensional slicing, Boolean masks, fancy indexing, conditional selection, views, and copies.
Reshaping and array manipulation
Review reshape, flatten, transpose, concatenate, stack, split, repeat, tile, axis operations, and dimensional transformations.
Broadcasting and vectorisation
Assess broadcasting rules, element-wise operations, universal functions, vectorised logic, aggregation, and loop replacement.
Statistics and linear algebra
Measure descriptive statistics, correlation, matrix products, determinants, inverses, eigenvalues, systems of equations, and numerical interpretation.
