IronPython vs. NumPy vs. broot vs. statsmodels Comparison Chart

Fast and versatile, the NumPy vectorization, indexing, and broadcasting concepts are the de-facto standards of array computing today. NumPy offers comprehensive mathematical functions, random number generators, linear algebra routines, Fourier transforms, and more. NumPy supports a wide range of hardware and computing platforms, and plays well with distributed, GPU, and sparse array libraries. The core of NumPy is well-optimized C code. Enjoy the flexibility of Python with the speed of compiled code. NumPy’s high level syntax makes it accessible and productive for programmers from any background or experience level. NumPy brings the computational power of languages like C and Fortran to Python, a language much easier to learn and use. With this power comes simplicity: a solution in NumPy is often clear and elegant.

statsmodels is a Python module that provides classes and functions for the estimation of many different statistical models, as well as for conducting statistical tests and statistical data exploration. An extensive list of result statistics is available for each estimator. The results are tested against existing statistical packages to ensure that they are correct. The package is released under the open-source Modified BSD (3-clause) license. statsmodels supports specifying models using R-style formulas and pandas DataFrames. Have a look at dir(results) to see available results. Attributes are described in results.__doc__ and results methods have their own docstrings. You can also use numpy arrays instead of formulas. The easiest way to install statsmodels is to install it as part of the Anaconda distribution, a cross-platform distribution for data analysis and scientific computing. This is the recommended installation method for most users.
