Here are 100 tips for working with SciPy, a library in Python used for scientific and technical computing:

1. Basics of SciPy:

1. Import SciPy with import scipy.
2. Install SciPy using pip install scipy.
3. Access SciPy version with scipy.__version__.
4. Import specific modules from SciPy, e.g., from scipy import stats.
5. Use scipy.constants for physical and mathematical constants.

2. Integration and Differentiation:

1. Integrate a function with scipy.integrate.quad().
2. Perform double integration using dblquad().
3. Differentiate a function numerically with scipy.misc.derivative().

3. Linear Algebra:

1. Solve a linear system of equations with scipy.linalg.solve().
2. Calculate the determinant of a matrix with scipy.linalg.det().
3. Compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix using scipy.linalg.eig().

4. Sparse Matrix Operations:

1. Create a sparse matrix with…
