SciPy is an open source Python -based software environment that is primarily used by scientists, analysts and engineers for scientific computing , visualization and related activities. The name SciPy also denotes a specific Python library with numerical algorithms and mathematical tools that form a core component of the SciPy environment. The SciPy environment contains the NumPy package as a numerics base library , which supplements Python with efficient data types for large, multidimensional vectors and matrices . In addition, SciPy includes the mentioned SciPy library with algorithms for numerical integration and numerical optimization as well as a growing number of additional libraries for various problems in the field of computer-aided numerical computing, e.g. B. IPython , Matplotlib , pandas and SymPy .

As a complete system, SciPy includes modules for numerical optimization, linear algebra , numerical integration, interpolation , FFT , signal processing , image processing , numerical integration of ordinary differential equations and symbolic mathematics .

The name SciPy also stands for a family of global conferences for users and developers of SciPy and the subsystems it contains: SciPy (in the USA ), EuroSciPy (in Europe ) and SciPy.in (in India ).
