In the package python-numpy-doc all files are *.py or *.py.gz which are filenames of python source code.
The homepage of numpy contains the documentation in html and in pdf format (user guide and reference guide), which is more useful and also much more complete. There are 1865 html-files in the reference guide on the numpy-homepage compared to 18 py-files in the ubuntu package.
