Scientific Computing with NumPy

[kpp9c]

Numeric, Numarray, & Numpy... some one stick a screwdriver in my
forehead and end the madness that Numeric has become.

Brilliant programming & an almost essential part of scientific & math
hacking in python made maddeningly confusing by truly dumb naming
scheme.

For crying all night! Numpy was Numeric's nickname!!... choose a new,
related, but unique name!!!! Holy cow!!! How hard is that? A group of
folks smart enough to come up with such an amazing piece of software
can't do better than to avoid this unnecessary confusion?

only Apple could top naming as retarded as this.

with 2.3 seconds i came up with this:

Nappy

Numeric Array processing in Python

similar enough to suggest its origins, unique enough to not confuse the
heck out of everyone...

I am sure folks can do better, but really!
