SciPy ----- There has been a lot of work on SciPy lately by the Travis Oliphant, Travis Vaught, Pearu Peterson, Joe Cooper, and on the website by Jon-Eric Steinbomer and Janet Swisher.
When SciPy 0.1 was released a couple a years ago, I think we averaged about 10.
Other Stuff ----------- In addition to SciPy we have multiple projects going on right now that either already plug into or will be plugins to a Python-based scientific application framework called Envisage (sorta like an IDE for science apps) that we're working on.

SalStat uses html as it's such a wide-spread (and open!) standard, but the users of SciPy may want something different: possibly even just plain text which would be the simplest to implement.
The audience for SciPy is scientists and the task is complex numerical analysis.
The chaps working on SciPy seem to be interested in developing a GUI for it like a lot of maths/statistics packages have.

But librandomkit.pyd also appears clean of Python symbols, according to my 30-day trial DLL explorer; the only dependencies are: advapi32.dll kernel32.dll msvcr71.dll msvcrt.dll So it seems the GNU linker does the right thing in the MinGW case too, not linking in Python symbols unless they're explicitly dereferenced.
If that does not work, the next step is to copy necessary hooks for shared libraries from build_ext.py to build_clib.py or create a new command build_slib (or something like that) altogether.
For example, when scipy would ship > blas/lapack source codes then it would be desirable to install blas/lapack > libraries so that various scipy subpackages could use them.

 LWN: SciPy 2004 Conference Announced
Greetings, The 1st annual *SciPy Conference* will be held this year at Caltech, September 2-3, 2004.
As some of you may know, we've experienced great participation in two SciPy "Workshops" (with ~70 attendees in both 2002 and 2003) and this year we're graduating to a "conference." With the prestige of a conference comes the responsibility of a keynote address.
This year, Jim Hugunin has answered the call and will be speaking to kickoff the meeting on Thursday September 2nd.

 Packaging Scipy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
So, the issue of distributing Scipy and F2py have been brought up in Scipy and F2py mailing lists many times and the purpose of this document is to provide instructions for the packagers how to overcome this issue.
Instead of using tar-balls from web, currently it is highly recommended getting scipy and other software from their CVS repository.
Usually CVS versions are more stable than tar-balls (sometimes not but any issues will be quickly fixed), also core developers do not test tar-balls very frequently and occasionally some important files may be missing.

The program has been modified to use Gnuplot for plotting and to allow the grid size for the sparsely sampled function to be specified on the command line.
If the goal were to pick a grid by hand to produce a nice graph, it wouldn't be an issue, but I need to be able to fit a surface to a set of points in an automated manner without requiring a human to adjust the grid sizes to get reasonable surface fit.
If you have any hints feel free to e-mail me at grante@visi.com or respond to the thread on the scipy mailing list or in comp.graphics.visualization.

 baoilleach: R or SciPy for Cheminformatics?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
Python, through the SciPy numerical extension, offers an alternative to using R in cheminformatics.
In addition, the data is either read in as a list or a single vector, and requires a transformation to a data frame before it is of use.
R uses singular value decomposition (svd) to do the PCA, whereas I found the eigenvalues of the covariance matrix using SciPy.

 Building Scipy on Windows
At minimum, Python, Numeric, F2PY, Atlas (or BLAS), and LAPACK is required to build Scipy.
Then Scipy setup.py script (scipy_distutils/system_info.py to be specific) will pickup the sources and compiles them.
However, building Scipy can be a very long running task and to be sure that it will be successful, it is recommended to install Scipy_core first and check that it is working properly.

I'd like it to be able to work with the Enthought python distribution on Windows, that already includes 90% of the external libraries (scipy, numarray, wxpython etc.) I need, so people don't have to install a bazillion dependencies one by one to get it working -just a few must be downloaded in addition.
After patching numpy/distutils/fcompilers/intel.py as explained in the thread "F2PY stopped working with new scipy", I was able to compile the wrappers, but they don't quite work right.I think the easiest way to explain it is by example.
Looking at the scipy website, the matrix type looks the closest to matlab syntax, but I still have some issues: - under matlab, everything, including scalar, are matrices in matlab sense.

A tremendous amount of work has gone into SciPy and Numpy over the past few months, and the scientific python community around these and other tools has truly flourished[1].
The Scipy 2006 Conference is an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas, learn techniques, contribute code and affect the direction of scientific computing with Python.

You can use PyTables with SciPy, but currently a conversion is needed.
If you are using a recent version of SciPy and numarray, then you will be able to do this conversion without copying, using the array protocol.
If you insist on using older versions, a simple method is to convert a SciPy array to a Python list.

SciPy Core (replacement for Numeric Python) first beta release
Numeric was originally written nearly 10 years ago, and while still performing admirably, needed much updating to take advantage of the new features in Python and to remove old warts.
SciPy Core 0.4.1 (beta) SciPy Core is a new system which builds on the code-base of Numeric, but implements features (such as advanced index-selection, and user-settable error modes).

This is a tutorial on how to compile and install SciPy on a 32-bit Linux platform using the GCC compiler suite.
While that may seem a bit restrictive, these same basic instructions should work on most UNIX platforms with a bit of tweaking here and there, with most of the tweaking needed in the area of compiler arguments, especially if the GCC compilers aren't used.
The latest (as of Jan. 2006) version of SciPy builds on and is a successor to the Numarray project, which was itself a sort of successor to the Numeric Python project.
