numpy question: how to get started

[Maximilian Nickel]

Hi,
you have numpy installed but are trying to use Numeric. Numpy and Numeric
are not equivalent. Numpy is the successor of Numeric and has different
codebase (although there is a compatibility-module). Afaik Numeric isnt
actively developed anymore. (See also http://numpy.scipy.org and
http://people.csail.mit.edu/jrennie/python/numeric/)
If you want to use Numeric you have to "sudo port install py26-numeric".
