 <longdescription>
-This package contains a powerful N-dimensional array object, sophisticated (broadcasting) functions, tools for integrating C/C++ and Fortran code, and useful linear algebra, Fourier transform, and random number capabilities.    It derives from the old Numeric code base and can be used as a replacement for Numeric.  It also adds the features introduced by numarray and can be used to replace numarray. 
+NumPy is a general-purpose array-processing package designed to
+efficiently manipulate large multi-dimensional arrays of arbitrary
+records without sacrificing too much speed for small multi-dimensional
+arrays.  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.
+
+There are also basic facilities for discrete fourier transform,
+basic linear algebra and random number generation.
+It is the successor of Numeric and numarray.
