[Gmath-devel] scientific python

[Adrian F. <fe...@ma...>]

Hi Hassan. You posted a mail a few days ago about a code for derivatives
in python.

Did you take a look at scientific python? It looks like a natural
extension to numpy, with derivatives, less-squares fits, etc.

I think it worth it to be considered for gmath.

What do you think?
Regards,
<ADRIAN>
