Mojo Programming Language combines the usability of Python with the performance of C, C++ and Rust. Mojo Programming Language utilizes next-generation compiler technologies with features like caching, multithreading and cloud distribution technologies. Further, Auto-Tuning and compile-time Metaprogramming features allows to write code for several hardware. The advantages of Mojo Programming Language are Usability & Programmability, best performance, Interoperability and Extensibility.

As we saw Interoperability of Mojo Programming Language with Python Ecosystem to use Matplotlib Python Visualization Library, Pandas Python Data Analysis and Manipulation Library and Numpy (Fundamental Package for Scientific Computing in Python) Library in Mojo Programming Language in previous Articles/Blogs. In this Article/Blog, we are going to see the Interoperability of Mojo Programming Language with Python Ecosystem to use SciPy Python Library in Mojo Programming Language. In this Article/Blog, we are going to see how to use SciPy Python Library to compute Tangent of given Angle in Degrees in Mojo Programming Language.

In this Blog, Programming in Mojo is done using Mojo Playground.

Interoperability of Mojo Programming Language with Python Ecosystem:

In Mojo Programming Language, Interoperability with Python Ecosystem can be done to import Python modules / libraries / custom code / local modules and use it with Mojo Programming and also to create Python types from Mojo types. This mechanism uses CPython Interpreter to run the Python code and currently it works with all Python modules.

SciPy Python Library in Mojo Programming Language:

SciPy is an open-source Python Library is a collection of Mathematical Algorithms and useful functions built on NumPy Python Library. It provides user with high-level commands and classes for Data Visualization and Data Manipulation.

Using SciPy Python Library to compute Tangent of given Angle in Degrees in Mojo Programming Language:

To import a Python module / library in Mojo, first we should import Python from python module / library, then we should use Python.import_module() fucntion with the required module name.

In the above example we had computed Tangent of given Angle in Degrees using tandg() function of special subpackage of scipy package / library, where the tandg() function takes the Angle given in Degrees as input.

Since, Mojo Programming Language is still in development some features of Python Programming Language are not yet implemented in Mojo and not a full superset of Python yet, but all the missing Python features will be implemented soon as mentioned by Modular-Mojo Development Team. But Mojo Programming Language already consists of many features and capabilities beyond Python Programming Language.

We had seen about Interoperability of Mojo Programming Language with Python Ecosystem to use SciPy Python Library in Mojo Programming Language. We had seen how to use SciPy Python Library to compute Tangent of given Angle in Degrees in Mojo Programming Language. Programming in Mojo and Mojo Programming concepts will be discussed further.

Thankyou for reading this blog on Interoperability of Mojo Programming Language with Python Ecosystem: Using SciPy Python Library in Mojo Programming Language — to compute Tangent of given Angle in Degrees.
