SciPy (pronounced "Sigh Pie") is open-source software for mathematics,
|
|
science, and engineering.
|
|
|
|
The SciPy library is built to work with NumPy arrays, and provides
|
|
many user-friendly and efficient numerical routines such as routines
|
|
for numerical integration and optimization. Together, they run on
|
|
all popular operating systems, are quick to install, and are free of
|
|
charge. NumPy and SciPy are easy to use, but powerful enough to be
|
|
depended upon by some of the world's leading scientists and engineers.
|
|
|
|
matplotlib and ipython are nice to have in connection with scipy, but
|
|
scipy does not depend on them.
|
|
|
|
Since ver. 0.14.0 scipy uses SuperLU instead of UMFPACK for solving
|
|
unsymmetric sparse linear systems. If you want to use UMFPACK you
|
|
must install it in advance of numpy and build numpy accordingly (see
|
|
the README to numpy's SlackBuild). Moreover, after installing scipy,
|
|
you have to install scikit-umfpack, which presently is not available
|
|
on SlackBuilds.org.
|
|
|
|
If you need to build scipy for debugging, set DEBUG=y.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: this is for Python 3. If you need Python 2 support, install
|
|
scipy.
