What are the differences between numpy arrays and matrices? Which one should I use?

Question

What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?

From what I\'ve seen, either one can work as a replacement for the other if need be, so should I bother using both

Answer 1

As per the official documents, it's not anymore advisable to use matrix class since it will be removed in the future.

As other answers already state that you can achieve all the operations with NumPy arrays.
