Where in Python can I find real_fft() these days? It's not in numpy.fft

Question

I have some ancient code (5 years old) and how I used to access real_fft() method was this:

from FFT import *
real_fft(data, fft_length)

I guess the FFT module came with NumPy. Now, years later I installed the NumPy 1.6.1 with

pip install numpy

And all I see in the docs http://www.scipy.org/Numpy_Functions_by_Category , are these functions:

fft()

fftfreq()

fftshift()

ifft()

It is strange, because in this numpy docs, real_fft() is there:

Answer 1

It looks like NumPy underwent some reorganisation in recent years.

FFT is now numpy.fft, and real_fft() seems to be renamed into rfft()
