I am new to python and have tried to install numpy, but the darn thing doesn't recognise it's existence.

What happens if you start python from the directory that numpy is in and
then import Numeric? If that works, then you need to put the directory 
on your path. See site.py in the standard library for how this works. [ 
Quick explanation: if you have numpy at 
/usr/lib/python/site-packages/numpy, then create a file named numpy.pth 
in /usr/lib/python/site-packages with the word numpy as its contents. ]
