Well, some years ago I looked for a matrix package. At that time it looked that numarray was the end of it all - it had a clean syntax, an active developer team. It looked to have everything that one could possibly wish. And here we are, it is fallen out of favour. It seems to me to be unwise to assume that in OSS there is the final, never to be superseded package for anything, including matrix algebra. OTH, I appreciate your reminder of SciPy. Thank you, Leslie.

However, I had in mind giants in informed writing on Python. Besides, it seems a custom to put in very old pictures in web publications. I do that myself, except that even in old pictures I am really, really old... I have a superseded paper version of Frederik Lundh's book "Python Standard Library", published by O'Reilly in May 2001. For Python that is a fair while back. Thanks for the link to the picture - appreciate it!
