| Introduction | |
| ================ | |
| The purpose of the F2PY_ --*Fortran to Python interface generator*-- | |
| project is to provide a connection between Python and Fortran | |
| languages. F2PY is a Python_ package (with a command line tool | |
| ``f2py`` and a module ``f2py2e``) that facilitates creating/building | |
| Python C/API extension modules that make it possible | |
| * to call Fortran 77/90/95 external subroutines and Fortran 90/95 | |
| module subroutines as well as C functions; | |
| * to access Fortran 77 ``COMMON`` blocks and Fortran 90/95 module data, | |
| including allocatable arrays | |
| from Python. See F2PY_ web site for more information and installation | |
| instructions. | |
