4.2 Mathematical preliminaries

In order to understand how arrays work in NumPy, it is useful to understand the mathematical parallel between accessing tensor (matrix and vector) elements by indexes and evaluating mathematical functions by providing arguments. We also cover in this section the generalization of the dot product as a reduction operator.
