The fundamental package needed for scientific computing with Python is
called NumPy. This package contains:
* a powerful N-dimensional array object
* sophisticated (broadcasting) functions
* basic linear algebra functions
* basic Fourier transforms
* sophisticated random number capabilities
* tools for integrating Fortran code.
NumPy derives from the old Numeric code base and can be used as a
replacement for Numeric. It also adds the features introduced by numarray
and can also be used to replace numarray.
Note: Development for Numeric has ceased, and users should transisition to
NumPy as quickly as possible.
