A Dask array comprises many smaller n-dimensional Numpy arrays and uses a blocked algorithm to enable computation on larger-than-memory arrays. During an operation, Dask translates the array operation into a task graph, breaks up large Numpy arrays into multiple smaller chunks, and executes the work on each chunk in parallel.
NumPy (pronounced / ˈ n ʌ m p aɪ / NUM-py) is a library for the Python programming language, adding support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays. [3]
Support for multi-dimensional arrays may also be provided by external libraries, which may even support arbitrary orderings, where each dimension has a stride value, and row-major or column-major are just two possible resulting interpretations. Row-major order is the default in NumPy [19] (for Python).
The library NumPy can be used for manipulating arrays, SciPy for scientific and mathematical analysis, Pandas for analyzing table data, Scikit-learn for various machine learning tasks, NLTK and spaCy for natural language processing, OpenCV for computer vision, and Matplotlib for data visualization.

In the merge sort algorithm, this subroutine is typically used to merge two sub-arrays A[lo..mid], A[mid+1..hi] of a single array A. This can be done by copying the sub-arrays into a temporary array, then applying the merge algorithm above. [1] The allocation of a temporary array can be avoided, but at the expense of speed and programming ease.
Merge these n arrays with the k-way merge algorithm. The resulting array is sorted and the algorithm has a running time in O ( n f( n )). This is a contradiction to the well-known result that no comparison-based sorting algorithm with a worst case running time below O ( n log n ) exists.
Conversely, loop fusion (or loop jamming) is a compiler optimization and loop transformation which replaces multiple loops with a single one. [3] [2] Loop fusion does not always improve run-time speed. On some architectures, two loops may actually perform better than one loop because, for example, there is increased data locality within
Two modulo-9 LCGs show how different parameters lead to different cycle lengths. Each row shows the state evolving until it repeats. The top row shows a generator with m = 9, a = 2, c = 0, and a seed of 1, which produces a cycle of length 6. The second row is the same generator with a seed of 3, which produces a cycle of length 2.
