> Description: NumPy is a general-purpose array-processing package designed
> to
>         efficiently manipulate large multi-dimensional arrays of arbitrary
>         records without sacrificing too much speed for small
> multi-dimensional
>         arrays.  NumPy is built on the Numeric code base and adds features
>         introduced by numarray as well as an extended C-API and the
> ability to
>         create arrays of arbitrary type which also makes NumPy suitable
> for
>         interfacing with general-purpose data-base applications.
>
>         There are also basic facilities for discrete fourier transform,
>         basic linear algebra and random number generation.
