What is a Python library?

02/21/2023 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS

In Python, a library is a package of reusable modules developed by third parties to facilitate the Python program development process. A library can contain functions, classes, methods, and other things that help developers accomplish specific tasks.

Python libraries are generally divided into modules that work together to provide specific functionality. For example, there are libraries like NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib that are specifically designed for numerical calculations, data analysis, and data visualization.

The beauty of Python libraries is that they are modular, which means developers only need to import the modules they need to accomplish their task. This saves time and resources in the development process and allows developers to leverage existing libraries to speed up their work.

Python libraries can be easily installed from the Python Package Index (PyPI) or other repositories, or they can be part of a larger Python framework or application.
