Overview of this book

Python is a very high level, general purpose language that is utilized heavily in fields such as data science and research, as well as being one of the top choices for general purpose programming for programmers around the world. It features a wide number of powerful, high and low-level libraries and frameworks that complement its delightful syntax and enable Python programmers to create. This book introduces some of the most popular libraries and frameworks and goes in-depth into how you can leverage these libraries for your own high-concurrent, highly-performant Python programs. We'll cover the fundamental concepts of concurrency needed to be able to write your own concurrent and parallel software systems in Python. The book will guide you down the path to mastering Python concurrency, giving you all the necessary hardware and theoretical knowledge. We'll cover concepts such as debugging and exception handling as well as some of the most popular libraries and frameworks that allow you to create event-driven and reactive systems. By the end of the book, you'll have learned the techniques to write incredibly efficient concurrent systems that follow best practices.

Summary

So, let's recap over what we have covered. We looked at what GPUs are in depth as well as how we could utilize them for more general purpose tasks. We covered some of the more realistic scenarios that data scientists would typically encounter and why these are ideal scenarios for us to leverage these GPU wrapper libraries.

We then looked at some of the major libraries that exist today that allow us to leverage the full power of our graphics processing hardware. You should now have some idea as to how to get started writing your own GPU- as well as APU-based applications, whether this be for data science purposes or otherwise.

In the final chapter of this book, we'll take a look back at the different techniques we covered within this book and summarize some of the key places to use them.
