I thought they were the same thing until I saw the part at 4:21 where it says "This output is a 0-D array, rather than a scalar" And then at 6:19 all the outputs (after using the squeeze method) returned as scalars. I am confused. Are 0-D arrays and scalars different?

After some research, here is what I got Mathematically, no, you can think of them as the same However, from NumPy point of view, yes, they are different please check this why-are-0d-arrays-in-numpy-not-considered-scalar
