Only a tiny one, and Ralph Gommers and Pauli Virtanen also contributed. But Ian Henriksen wrote the code and did all the tedious work. Ian also had to put up with doing all the work twice, because we changed the design when he was almost done. Originally we hijacked the _cpointer attribute from the (incomplete) f2py interfaces, similar to what statsmodels does, but there were a number of difficulties with this method. We therefore opted for using Cython's sharing mechanism for C functions instead [see link], which meant Ian had to do the work all over again. http://docs.cython.org/src/userguide/sharing_declarations.html Sturla ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
