Name        : numpy
Product     : Fedora 20
Version     : 1.8.0
Release     : 2.fc20
URL         : http://www.numpy.org/
Summary     : A fast multidimensional array facility for Python
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.

There are also basic facilities for discrete fourier transform,
basic linear algebra and random number generation. Also included in
this package is a version of f2py that works properly with NumPy.

Update Information:

Update to 1.8.0:
- New, gufuncs for linear algebra, enabling operations on stacked arrays.
- New, inplace fancy indexing for ufuncs with the ``.at`` method.
- New, ``partition`` function, partial sorting via selection for fast median.
- New, ``nanmean``, ``nanvar``, and ``nanstd`` functions skipping NaNs.
- New, ``full`` and ``full_like`` functions to create value initialized arrays.
- New, ``PyUFunc_RegisterLoopForDescr``, better ufunc support for user dtypes.
- Numerous performance improvements in many areas.
