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. + +If you need to build numpy for debugging, set DEBUG=y. If software +depending on numpy is having problems with the new relaxed strides +checking, set NPY_RSC=0. + +It is highly recommended to install optimized BLAS and LAPACK libs +before installing numpy. You may choose between ATLAS+LAPACK and +OpenBLAS. + +IMPORTANT: This version, 1.8.2, is the latest to include the oldnumeric + and numarray compatibility modules. Starting with version + 1.9.0 these modules got removed by the numpy developers. + THUS: This SlackBuild conflicts with the numpy SlackBuild + which installs versions >= 1.9.0! -- cgit v1.2.3-80-g2a13
