 Ndarray Object

 Most important object defined in NumPy is an N-

dimensional array type called ndarray
 Describes the collection of items of the same type

What is 

Items can be accessed using a zero-based index
Every item in an ndarray takes the same size of block
Numpy Array in the memory.
 Each element in ndarray is an object of data-type
object (called dtype).
