Numba

A Just-In-Time Compiler for Numerical Functions in Python

Numba is an open source, NumPy-aware optimizing compiler for Python sponsored by Anaconda, Inc. It uses the LLVM compiler project to generate machine code from Python syntax.

Numba can compile a large subset of numerically-focused Python, including many NumPy functions. Additionally, Numba has support for automatic parallelization of loops, generation of GPU-accelerated code, and creation of ufuncs and C callbacks.

For more information about Numba, see the Numba homepage: https://numba.pydata.org and the online documentation: https://numba.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html
