graphblas-algorithms VS NumPy

And algorithms for the NetworkX backend graphblas-algorithms is here: https://github.com/python-graphblas/graphblas-algorithms

GraphBLAS is wrapped by https://github.com/python-graphblas/python-graphblas/ and the algorithms are available at https://github.com/python-graphblas/graphblas-algorithms. NetworkX only dispatches the computation for a subset of algorithms to graphblas-algorithms right now.

If you want the graphblas API in python, https://github.com/python-graphblas/python-graphblas/ is the right place :)

GraphBLAS is underrated and underused IMHO. If you use e.g. scipy.sparse, NetworkX, or similar, you should check out GraphBLAS. It is really fast even compared to scipy.sparse, and more capable in many ways.

They've actually started implementing the NetworkX API

In NumPy with @, dot() or matmul():

In NumPy with * or multiply(). ` or multiply()` can multiply 0D or more D arrays by element-wise multiplication.

Data science projects often use numpy. However, numpy objects are not JSON-serializable and therefore require conversion to standard python objects in order to be saved:

numpy: A library for scientific computing in Python

Python has become a preferred language for data analysis due to its simplicity and robust library ecosystem. Among these, NumPy stands out with its efficient handling of numerical data. Let’s say you’re working with numbers for large data sets—something Python’s native data structures may find challenging. That’s where NumPy arrays come into play, making numerical computations seamless and speedy.

I was looking at all the big projects like numpy, pytorch, flask, etc.

I wish the NumPy devs would more thoroughly consider adding full fluent API support, e.g. x.sqrt().ceil(). [Issue #24081]
