Python Ecosystem for Machine Learning
Last Updated on August 21, 2019
The Python ecosystem is growing and may become the dominant platform for machine learning.
The primarily rationale for adopting Python for machine learning is because it is a general purpose programming language that you can use both for research and development and in production.
In this post you will discover the Python ecosystem for machine learning.
Kick-start your project with my new book Machine Learning Mastery With Python, including step-by-step tutorials and the Python source code files for all examples.
Let’s get started.

Python
Python is a general purpose interpreted programming language. It is easy to learn and use primarily because the language focuses on readability.
The philosophy of Python is captured in the Zen of Python which includes phrases like:
- Beautiful is better than ugly.
- Explicit is better than implicit.
- Simple is better than complex.
- Complex is better than complicated.
- Flat is better than nested.
- Sparse is better than dense.
