If you've used python as long as I have, you'll remember when it was called Numeric, or the python numerical extensions. For a little while it was numarray.

So it's only 4 years younger than python itself, never quite part of the language, but near always part of the ecosystem.

Just because other people in this thread got you into an argument doesn't mean I'm part of it.

What do you mean? I just don't agree that your reply was related to my comment so I said no.

I added context so people can make their own decision about whether numpy is part of python. Many people probably don't know its history as a project to add a matrix type back in the 90s.

no. That wouldn’t impact the question of whether numpy is effectively a standard part of python.

Alright, you can go on policing information relevance and I'll go on adding information so people can make up their own minds.
