# Npy

Load NumPy `npy` and `npz` files in Ruby - no Python required

:fire: Uses [Numo::NArray](https://github.com/ruby-numo/numo-narray) for blazing performance

## Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'npy'
```

## Getting Started

### npy

`npy` files contain a single array

Load an `npy` file

```ruby
arr = Npy.load("x.npy")
```

Load an `npy` string

```ruby
byte_str = File.binread("x.npy")
arr = Npy.load_string(byte_str)
```

### npz

`npz` files contain multiple arrays

Load an `npz` file

```ruby
arrs = Npy.load_npz("mnist.npz")
```

Get keys

```ruby
arrs.keys
```

Get an array

```ruby
arrs["x"]
```

Arrays are lazy loaded for performance
