# Numpy User Guide

This guide explains how to make use of different features of Numpy. For a detailed documentation about different functions and classes, see NumPy Reference.

Warning

This “User Guide” is still very much work in progress; the material is not organized, and many aspects of Numpy are not covered.

More documentation for Numpy can be found on the scipy.org website.
