Returns the directory containing NumPy C header files.

Notes

Classes specifying the information to be printed are defined in the numpy.distutils.system_info module.

Information may include:

• language: language used to write the libraries (mostly C or f77)

• libraries: names of libraries found in the system

• library_dirs: directories containing the libraries

• include_dirs: directories containing library header files

• src_dirs: directories containing library source files

• define_macros: preprocessor macros used by distutils.setup

Examples

>>>

>>> np.show_config()
blas_opt_info:
    language = c
    define_macros = [('HAVE_CBLAS', None)]
    libraries = ['openblas', 'openblas']
    library_dirs = ['/usr/local/lib']
