Minimal GNU Scientific Library Interface

Project description

This package provides a very minimal wrapper for GSL, based on the pygsl library . This is done to drastically reduce complexity. In particular, the following features are supported as they provide performance advantages useful for physics simulations.

  • ODE integration

  • Cubic spline interpolation

  • 1D root finding

Due to the much reduced scope, this package can eschew a lot of complexity in wrapping all of GSL. Furthermore, only latest GSL versions(>=2.7) are supported. As a result, the installation process is significantly streamlined.

For a complete GSL experience, it is recommended to use pygsl

All credit for GSL functionality is due to original pygsl authors/maintainers. See thanks , maintainers and in CREDITS.rst.

Installation instructions

Installation requires gsl>=2.7 and optionally swig>=4.0, if one wants to rebuild the wrappers. Only python>=3.8 is supported.

If installing from source, run

pip install .

The pygsl documentation can be found at here
