In [1]: from numpy import *

In [2]: convolve?
Type:           function
Base Class:     <type 'function'>
Namespace:      Interactive

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy-1.0.3.dev3714-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg/numpy/core/numeric.py
Definition:     convolve(a, v, mode='full')
Docstring:
    Returns the discrete, linear convolution of 1-D sequences a and v; mode
