Dear Meep users:
Below are the installation instructions for the serial version of Python
Meep on Ubuntu 16.04. This is based on Python3 with the NumPy and h5py
dependency libraries. The Scheme/libctl interface is also installed.
Note that Guile, HDF5, and FFTW are installed as pre-compiled binaries
which reduces the total installation time considerably compared to
having to manually build these packages from source.
Instructions for the parallel (i.e., MPI) version will be made available
soon. In the meantime, we recommend trying out the Python tutorials
<http://meep.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Python_Tutorials/Basics/> to
develop a sense for the new interface. We welcome your comments and
feedback; please create an issue on GitHub
<https://github.com/stevengj/meep/issues> for discussions.
These instructions are also available as a bash script
<http://ab-initio.mit.edu/%7Eoskooi/meep_discuss/build_meep_python.sh>.
Cordially,
Ardavan Oskooi
