Hey, a while ago I wrote something like a light wrapper around Python.NET to embed CPython with numpy/scipy in a .NET GUI. It manages local/global dictionaries, automatically converts simple data types and numpy arrrays<->C# arrays and provides a plotting widget in C# that shows matplotlib plots. It also has some other convenience functions.
The code is by no means complete, fully tested or even nice. However, for me it works. I uploaded it to github: https://github.com/Lodomir/PythonInterface As it demonstrates some not-well documented use of Python.NET, I thought it maybe nice to share the code. You will need to add the references to Python.NET to build the main project (PythonInterface) and additionally to the PythonInterface-DLL to build the examples.
