Array programming with NumPy - Nature
www.nature.com
NumPy is the primary array programming library for Python; here its fundamental concepts are reviewed and its evolution into a flexible interoperability layer between increasingly specialized computational libraries is discussed.

For Python developers, the NumPy array is a widely used data structure in data science / data engineering.

Thought this paper was a good resource to learn a bit more about the history and core concepts of NumPy.
