I think it'd be a good project. Used properly, the CLR's already been
shown to have decent speed for numeric calculations (and C# has access
to pointers). I was considering getting the OO Numerical Methods in
Java & Smalltalk book at some point, and porting the Java source to J#.
Python's got a f
Option 1 is the way to go if you want a quick and dirty
multidimensional array module that currently has a lot of community
support. Numarray/Numeric 3 was designed with the C programming
language in mind and is therefore constrained by C's lack of
object-oriented features. The Numarray code can

I think that "numpy" is the import name for the "Numerical" library
originally created by Paul Dubois.

There are two approaches: 1) wrap the unmanaged API in managed C++, or, 2)
rewrite the library in managed code (IronPython?). Also, I think the
Numeric library would be preferable to Numpy, although I'd bet Numpy has a
larger user base. Option 1 could be done fairly quickly, but option 2 is
