Use numpy; it is the "officially blessed one" that you refer to. It
has all of the advantages of the other two.

Numeric was the first library, but it had some drawbacks that led some
people to develop Numarray, which had some additional features.
Finally, the numpy project was started to unify the two groups by
providing some of the new features in a code base consistent with the
old library as well.
