NumPy for humans: a very good vector-geometry and linear-algebra toolbelt
Project description
vg
NumPy for humans – a very good toolbelt providing readable shortcuts for commonly used vector-geometry and linear-algebra functions.
The functions optionally can be vectorized, meaning they accept single inputs and stacks of inputs without the need to reshape. They return The Right Thing. With the power of NumPy, the vectorized functions are fast.
Features
normalize
normalizes a vector.sproj
computes the scalar projection of one vector onto another.proj
computes the vector projection of one vector onto another.reject
computes the vector rejection of one vector from another.reject_axis
zeros or squashes one component of a vector.magnitude
computes the magnitude of a vector.angle
computes the unsigned angle between two vectors.signed_angle
computes the signed angle between two vectors.almost_zero
tests if a vector is almost the zero vector.almost_collinear
tests if two vectors are almost collinear.pad_with_ones
adds a column of ones.unpad
strips off a column (e.g. of ones).apply_homogeneous
applies a transformation matrix using homogeneous coordinates.- Complete documentation: http://vgpy.readthedocs.io/
Installation
pip install numpy vg
Usage
import numpy as np
import vg
projected = vg.sproj(np.array([5.0, -3.0, 1.0]), onto=vg.basis.neg_y)
