Pandas is really great. I used it a lot for my master thesis and was
excited, especially in combination with ipython notebook it's great to
process, combine and visualize data.
Just a minior sidenote: it makes use of numpy IIRC, so it's not an
alternative to it but something on top of it.

All the best
