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
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.
