Hands-On GPU Computing with Python

Predefined libraries

Predefined libraries are basically existing modules that are already available for you to implement within your code and eliminates the necessity to spend time developing them on your own. Each predefined library is focused toward computing a specific task. By using predefined libraries in your code, you can focus on your primary project objective without having to worry about the additional development of common core features.

For example, you can use the predefined CUDA Math library to accelerate your math functions without having to write one on your own. This helps you focus better on solving the actual computational problem at hand. NVIDIA also offers readily available libraries to use with CUDA for application-specific ...
