> The h5py package is a Pythonic interface to the HDF5 binary data format.
>
> It lets you store huge amounts of numerical data, and easily manipulate
> that data from NumPy. For example, you can slice into multi-terabyte
> datasets stored on disk, as if they were real NumPy arrays. Thousands of
> datasets can be stored in a single file, categorized and tagged however
> you want.
>

>
> * Support for arbitrary vlen data

> * Single-step build for HDF5 on Windows
>
> Major fixes since beta:
