About the Author

Cyrille Rossant is a researcher in neuroinformatics, and is a graduate of Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris, where he studied mathematics and computer science. He has worked at Princeton University, University College London, and Collège de France.

As part of his data science and software engineering projects, he gained experience in machine learning, high-performance computing, parallel computing, and big data visualization. He is one of the developers of Vispy, a high-performance visualization package in Python. He is the author of Learning IPython for Interactive Computing and Data Visualization, Packt Publishing, a beginner-level introduction to data analysis in Python, and the prequel of this book.

I would like to thank the IPython development team for their support. I am also deeply grateful to Nick Fiorentini and his partner Darbie Whitman for their invaluable help during the later stages of editing.

Finally, I would like to thank my relatives and notably my wife Claire.
