You can get either Numeric or numarray from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy. matplotlib works transparently
with either (and provides a unified interface to both), but if you
choose numarray you need to change the "numerix" variable to numarray
in your matplotlib configuration file, which is described at
http://matplotlib.sf.net/.matplotlibrc

Good luck!
