The Quick and Easy Way to Analyze Numpy Arrays

Image
The quickest and easiest way to analyze NumPy arrays is by using the numpy.array() method. This method allows you to quickly and easily analyze the values contained in a numpy array. This method can also be used to find the sum, mean, standard deviation, max, min, and other useful analysis of the value contained within a numpy array. Sum You can find the sum of Numpy arrays using the np.sum() function.  For example:  import numpy as np  a = np.array([1,2,3,4,5])  b = np.array([6,7,8,9,10])  result = np.sum([a,b])  print(result)  # Output will be 55 Mean You can find the mean of a Numpy array using the np.mean() function. This function takes in an array as an argument and returns the mean of all the values in the array.  For example, the mean of a Numpy array of [1,2,3,4,5] would be  result = np.mean([1,2,3,4,5])  print(result)  #Output: 3.0 Standard Deviation To find the standard deviation of a Numpy array, you can use the NumPy std() function. This function takes in an array as a par

Three Top RPA tools functional differences

Robotic process automation is a grown-up area. Many IT developers across the board started up-skill in this popular area. This post is useful for Software developers who are interested in RPA (Robotic Process Automation).

In my previous post, I have shared twelve RPA tools. Out of those, three tools are the most popular. Those are Automation Anywhere, BluePrism, and Uipath. This post covers differences in these tools.

Blue Prism

Blue Prism has taken a simple concept, replicating user activity on the desktop, and made it enterprise strength.


The technology is scalable, secure, resilient, and flexible. It is has a comprehensive methodology, operational framework, and provided as packaged software.


The technology is developed and deployed within a corridor of IT governance. It has sophisticated error handling and process modeling capabilities to ensure it can perform at scale within demanding, highly sophisticated operating environments.


The combination of SOA/BPMS and Blue Prism platform provides almost total coverage of process automation opportunities.


'Object Studio' - where you can develop a script to automate the process. 'Process studio' - where you can test the objects that already developed in the Object studio.


The Control Room supervises the process (run and execution). Your data stores in the SQL Server database.

Automation Anywhere

The RPA tool from automation anywhere is a grown-up model, and you can find a lot of examples and material on this. The architecture comprises of Client, Bots, and Control Room. Automation Anywhere is software designed to automate virtually any computer-based process with ease. 


No programming is required. This interface makes it possible for anyone in an organization to quickly and reliably automate tasks of any complexity, including application integration, IT processes, data extraction, and migration.

It is available in Standard, Premier, Small Business, and Enterprise editions. The tool has capabilities include Task to EXE, Job scheduler, Drag-and-drop task editor, Workflow, and process mapping tools, Built-in Windows, web, and task recorders, Single-click web data extraction capabilities. 


The data storage happens in SQL express.

  5. Client installation


UiPath

Uipath comprises of three parts - Uipath studio, Uipath Robots, and UiPath Orchestrator, 

UiPath Studio

UiPath Studio is a highly intuitive visual processing modeling tool that helps you to design the process you intend to automate without any effort. The platform offers numerous best practices templates enabling users to have complete control over the automation.

UiPath Robots

UiPath Robots has front office and back office bots that execute the processes defined by you. While the front office robot shares the interface layer with the human agent who holds control over the utilization, the back office robot works in batch mode, without any intervention.

UiPath Orchestrator

UiPath Orchestrator allows you to deploy, start, stop, and schedule processes using a console and track the activities of robots. It offers a single interface to manage multiple robots that are running in your system.

You can store data in the SQL Server/Oracle.
