Numerical Python
Versions after 20.0 require Python 2.0 or later. To take advantage of the "rich comparisons" (i.e., to be able to compare arrays
and get back a boolean result) you need Python 2.1.

This software was originally written by Jim Hugunin when he was at MIT, later at CNRI.
Then Paul Dubois of LLNL became the "keeper". LLNL has released any contributions to it by LLNL personnel for free
redistribution. However, many people have contributed to Numpy. It is a classic open source effort that nobody "owns". So,
Numerical Python is placed in the SourceForge under the Python license. The LLNL license is in Legal.htm.
