Solving banded matrices with SciPy – Part I « CAE in ActionAlthough the numerical analyst or the engineer is able to write his own code, there’s no doubt that it’s safer and easier to use a code already done. And if this code is part of a well conceptualized library, there’s no reason to reinvent the wheel. To exemplify this idea, let’s solve the tridiagonal system shown in the post TDMA at glance using the SciPy library. See the Python code: import numpy
