Numeric (version 24.2) Numeric was the first arrayobject built for Python. It has been quite successful and is used in a wide variety of settings and applications. Maintenance has ceased for Numeric, and users should transisition to NumPy as quickly as possible. There is a module called numpy.oldnumeric.alter_code1 in NumPy that can make the transition to NumPy easier (it will automatically perform the search-and-replace style changes that need to be made to python code that uses Numeric to make it work with NumPy).
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.
This package contains:
Just like all Python modules and packages, the Numeric module can be invoked using either the import Numeric form, or the from Numeric import ... form.
from Numeric import *
or import Numeric
The Numpy module can be invoked using either the import nump form, or the from numpy import ... form.:
from numpy import *
or import numpy
