Parameters : 

rate  : [scalar] Rate of discount 
value : [array_like, shape(M,)] value of 
        cash flows time series. The (fixed) time interval 
        between cash flow “events” must be the same as that
        for given rate is given. By convention, investments

## Python program explaining npv() function
import numpy as np
 
#            rate            values    
a =  np.npv(0.281,[-100, 19, 49, 58, 200])
print("Net Present Value(npv) : ", a)


Output : 

Net Present Value(npv) :  46.5579792365
