#### Quick viewer for NumPy .npy and .npz files

npyquick is a small, practical viewer for inspecting NumPy .npy and .npz
array files without writing a notebook or launching a full IDE. Open files
from the terminal or the file manager and inspect common scientific data
layouts immediately.

It provides several views chosen automatically from the array:

* Image view for 2D grayscale and RGB arrays, with zoom, pan, colormap and brightness control, and a draggable cross-section profile.
* Histogram view with linear or log-scaled counts, robust range selection, and NaN / Inf reporting.
* Line plot view for 1D signals and paired (x, y) arrays.
* Table view as a fallback for higher-dimensional, object, scalar, or empty arrays.

## Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install npyquick

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://www.ubuntu.com/) or later, including [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features) and [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

For versions of Ubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include *snap* by default, *snap* can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for *snapd*.

Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
