What is ScientificPython, and where is it installed on XSEDE?

ScientificPython (not to be confused with SciPy) is a collection of Python modules that are useful for scientific computing. The collection consists of modules that cover basic geometry (vectors, tensors, transformations, vector and tensor fields), quaternions, automatic derivatives, (linear) interpolation, polynomials, elementary statistics, nonlinear least-squares fits, unit calculations, Fortran-compatible text formatting, 3D visualization via VRML, two Tk widgets for simple line plots and 3D wireframe models, and interfaces to the NetCDF library (portable structured binary files). For more, see the ScientificPython project page.

To find which XSEDE resources have this software (and which version) installed, use the Comprehensive Software Search on the XSEDE Software page.

1. Make sure the first drop-down list is set to Name.
   
   
2. Enter the application name in the text box.
   
   
3. Click Search.

If your search returns 0 results, it may mean this software is not available on XSEDE. If you wish to use such an application, contact  help@xsede.org . If a product (e.g., Python) is installed on a resource, and you want to use a specific module associated with that product (e.g., Biopython), you may contact  help@xsede.org  to request its installation.
