ScientificPython is an open source library of scientific tools for the Python programming language. Its development started in 1995.[1]
It has not been updated since October 1, 2014.[2]
The library includes
- mathematical tools like
- Differentiation for functions of any number of variables up to any order
- Numerical integration using the Romberg algorithm
- Newton–Raphson for numerical root finding
- Non-linear least squares fitting
- support for parallel computing
- and several input/output interfaces, notably with
- NetCDF files
- Protein Data Bank files
- Fortran-compatible text formatting
- VRML for 3D visualizations
Qt and Tk widget toolkits are provided for building cross-platform graphical user interfaces.
ScientificPython is released under the CeCILL.
The main developer and maintainer of ScientificPython is Konrad Hinsen of Orléans University who uses it as a building block for his own research code, in particular the molecular modeling toolkit MMTK[3] and the software nMoldyn that uses molecular dynamics trajectories to predict neutron scattering spectra.[4][5] Outside this particular application context, most users are likely to prefer the package SciPy, which has seen a more dynamic evolution in the decade 2000–2010, involving several active developers.
