NumPy is a high-performance library in the Python programming language that allows scientific calculations. It is preferred to Idl, Matlab, Octave, Or Yorick because it is open-source and free. Also, since it uses Python which is a general-purpose programming language, it scores over a generic programming language when it comes to connecting Python’s interpreter to C/C++ and Fortran code. 

NumPy supports multi-dimensional arrays and matrices and helps to perform complex mathematical operations on them.
