- QUOTE: Numpy provides powerful capabilities to create arrays of structs or records. These arrays permit one to manipulate the data by the structs or by fields of the struct.
Conveniently, one can access any field of the array by indexing using the string that names that field. In this case the fields have received the default names ‘f0’, ‘f1’ and ‘f2’.
