Subject: EuroPython 2015 Keynote: Carrie Anne Philbin
Message-ID: <5593D5D9.4040902@egenix.com>
We are pleased to introduce our next keynote speaker for EuroPython
2015: *Carrie Anne Philbin*. She will be giving her keynote on Thursday,
July 23, to start the EuroPython Educational Summit:
*** https://ep2015.europython.eu/en/events/educational-summit/ ***
About Carrie Anne Philbin
-------------------------
Carrie Anne is leading the education mission for the Raspberry Pi
Foundation, but is also known as an award winning secondary Computing
& ICT Teacher, Author, YouTuber:
* Author of "Adventures in Raspberry Pi", a computing book for
teenagers wanting to get started with Raspberry Pi and
programming. Winner of Teach Secondary magazine?s Technology &
Innovation Best Author award 2014.
* Creator of a YouTube video series for teenage girls called "The
Geek Gurl Diaries", which has won a Talk Talk Digital Hero
Award. The episodes include interviews with women working in
technology and hands on computer science based tutorials.
* Vice chair of the Computing At Schools (CAS) initiative to get more
girls and minority groups into computing, which created a workshop
based hack day for teenagers concentrating on delivering good
content to include all and "Hack the Curric" bringing academics,
educators and industry experts together to create inclusive
resources for the new Computing curriculum.
In 2012, she became a Google Certified Teacher and KS3 ICT subject
Leader at a school in East London. She has a blended and open approach
to teaching as can be seen on her website ICT with Miss P. She became
a Skype Moment Maker and ambassador for technology. She is an
evangelist and often speaks at conferences like BETT, Raspberry
Jamboree, YRS, PyCon UK and now EuroPython.
The Keynote: Designed for Education: A Python Solution
-------------------------------------------------------
The problem of introducing children to programming and computer
science has seen growing attention in the past few years. Initiatives
like Raspberry Pi, Code Club, code.org, (and many more) have been
created to help solve this problem. With the introduction of a
national computing curriculum in the UK, teachers have been searching
for a text based programming language to help teach computational
thinking as a follow on from visual languages like Scratch.
The educational community has been served well by Python, benefiting
from its straight-forward syntax, large selection of libraries, and
supportive community. Education-focused summits are now a major part
of most major Python Conferences. Assistance in terms of documentation
and training is invaluable, but perhaps there are technical means of
improving the experience of those using Python in education. Clearly
the needs of teachers and their students are different to those of the
seasoned programmer. Children are unlikely to come to their teachers
with frustrations about the Global Interpreter Lock! But issues such
as usability of IDEs or comprehensibility of error messages are of
utmost importance.
In this keynote, Carrie Anne will discuss existing barriers to Python
becoming the premier language of choice for teaching computer science,
and how learning Python could be helped immensely through tooling and
further support from the Python developer community.
EuroPython Educational Summit
-----------------------------
We will have Educational Summit focused talks, trainings, birds of a
feather sessions to debate and also Educational Sprints for the
building of education focused projects during the weekend.

Subject: [ANN] pyskiplist-1.0.0
Message-ID:
PySkipList is a fast, pure Python implementation of an indexable skiplist. It
implements a SkipList data structure that provides an always sorted,
list-like data structure for (key, value) pairs. It efficiently supports the
following operations:
* Insert a pair in the list, maintaining sorted order.
* Find the value of a given key.
* Remove a given pair based on a key.
* Iterate over all pairs in sorted order.
* Find the position of a given key.
* Access a pair at a certain position.
* Delete a pair at a certain position.
This implementation uses a novel (as far as I know) technique where it stores
just a single link width per node, and only in nodes with level > 0. The link
corresponds to the number of nodes skipped by the highest incoming link. Other
implementations that I've seen all store a width for every link. This approach
saves a lot of memory. The overhead should just be 1/e (0.37) integers per
node. It makes an indexable skiplist almost as memory efficient as its
non-indexable cousin.
Performance wise, it does around 77K searches per second on 100K nodes,
and has an overhead at this node count of about 106 bytes per node.
Available on PyPI as "pyskiplist" and Github at:

Geert

Subject: EuroPython 2015 Keynote: Holger Krekel
Message-ID: <5597C516.6030506@europython.eu>
We are pleased to introduce our next keynote speaker for EuroPython
2015: Holger Krekel. He will be giving a keynote on Wednesday, July
22.
About Holger Krekel
-------------------
Holger is a prolific Python developer with a strong interest in
communication:
?Socially this means engaging and co-organizing neighborhoods and
technically it means i am interested in distributed systems and
thriving to make available and built better communication machines
for other people.?
He also is a proud father and loves to dance to ?electronic swing? music.
Python projects
---------------
You will probably know Holger as author of the well-known pytest
testing framework and co-founder the PyPy project:
?When i discovered Python I was thrilled by its high-level
constructs and introspection facilities. I am still thrilled by the
idea of dynamically deploying and executing high level programs on
the net. In my view, Python and testing are a wonderfully productive
combination for writing software. Out of this conviction, I founded
and co-developed the PyPy project and maintain the pytest and tox
testing tools. I also maintain a number of other projects, among the
more popular are execnet for ad-hoc cross-interpreter communication
and the py lib. Most of my code you find at bitbucket/hpk42.?
The coding culture in almost all his projects consists of test- and
documentation-driven development and applying meta programming
techniques.
The Keynote: Towards a more effective, decentralized web
--------------------------------------------------------
In this talk, Holger will discuss the recent rise of immutable state
concepts in languages and network protocols:
?The advent of hash-based data structures and replication strategies
are shaking the client/server web service paradigm which rests on
managing mutable state through HTTP. By contrast, building on git,
bittorrent and other content addressed data structures provides for
a more secure, efficient decentralized communication topology. There
are projects, thoughts and talk to create new web standards to bring
such technologies to mass deployment and fuel a new wave of
decentralization. What can Python bring to the table??

Subject: [RELEASED] Python 3.5.0b3 is now available
Message-ID: <55996747.2030203@hastings.org>
On behalf of the Python development community and the Python 3.5 release
team, I'm relieved to announce the availability of Python 3.5.0b3.
Python 3.5 has now entered "feature freeze". By default new features
may no longer be added to Python 3.5.
This is a preview release, and its use is not recommended for production
settings.
An important reminder for Windows users about Python 3.5.0b3: if
installing Python 3.5.0b2 as a non-privileged user, you may need to
escalate to administrator privileges to install an update to your C
runtime libraries.
You can find Python 3.5.0b2 here:

We just released devpi-server-2.2.2, devpi-web-2.4.0 and devpi-client-2.3.0,
core parts of the private pypi package management and testing system.
Among the highlights are support for distributed testing with "devpi test --detox",
new status pages at "/+status" for replica and master sites and support for
configuring upload formats when running "devpi upload".
None of the changes require an export/import cycle on the server side if
you used devpi-server-2.2.X before. However, please read the respective
changelog entries below for some notes and potentially
backward-incompatible changes. See the home page for docs and tutorials:
http://doc.devpi.net

------------
- fix issue247: possible password leakage to log in devpi-client
- new experimental "-d|--detox" option to run tests via the "detox" distributed testing
tool instead of "tox" which runs test environments one by one.
- address issue246: make sure we use vcs-export also for building docs (and
respect --no-vcs for all building activity)
- address issue246: copy VCS repo dir to temporary upload dir to help
with setuptools_scm. Warn if VCS other than hg/git are used because
we don't copy the repo in that case for now and thus cause incompatibility
with setuptools_scm.
- (new,experimental) read a "[devpi:upload]" section from a setup.cfg file
with a "formats" setting that will be taken if no "--formats" option
is specified to "devpi upload". This allows to specify the default
artefacts that should be created along with a project's setup.cfg file.
Also you can use a ``no-vcs = True`` setting to induce the ``--no-vcs``
option.

Subject: EuroPython 2015 Keynote: Mandy Waite
Message-ID: <559ED1CC.3040504@europython.eu>
We are pleased to introduce our final keynote speaker for EuroPython
2015: Mandy Waite. She will be giving her keynote on Friday, July 24.
About Mandy Waite
-----------------
Mandy works at Google as a Developer Advocate for Google Cloud
Platform and to make the world a better place for developers building
applications for the Cloud:
?I came to Google from Sun Microsystems where I worked with partners
on performance and optimisation of large scale applications and
services before moving on to building an ecosystem of Open Source
applications for OpenSolaris. In my spare time I?m learning Japanese
and play the guitar.?
The Keynote: So, I have all these Docker containers, now what?
--------------------------------------------------------------
You?ve solved the issue of process-level reproducibility by packaging
up your apps and execution environments into a number of Docker
containers. But once you have a lot of containers running, you?ll
probably need to coordinate them across a cluster of machines while
keeping them healthy and making sure they can find each other. Trying
to do this imperatively can quickly turn into an unmanageable mess!
Wouldn?t it be helpful if you could declare to your cluster what you
want it to do, and then have the cluster assign the resources to get
it done and to recover from failures and scale on demand?
Kubernetes (http://kubernetes.io) is an open source, cross platform
cluster management and container orchestration platform that
simplifies the complex tasks of deploying and managing your
applications in Docker containers. You declare a desired state, and
Kubernetes does all the work needed to create and maintain it. In this
talk, we?ll look at the basics of Kubernetes and at how to map common
applications to these concepts. This will include a hands-on
demonstration and visualization of the steps involved in getting an
application up and running on Kubernetes.
Enjoy,

Subject: ANN: psutil 3.1.0 released
Message-ID:
Hello all,
I'm glad to announce the release of psutil 3.1.0:
https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/
About
=====
psutil (python system and process utilities) is a cross-platform library
for retrieving information on running processes and system utilization
(CPU, memory, disks, network) in Python. It is useful mainly for system
monitoring, profiling and limiting process resources and management of
running processes. It implements many functionalities offered by command
line tools such as: ps, top, lsof, netstat, ifconfig, who, df, kill, free,
nice, ionice, iostat, iotop, uptime, pidof, tty, taskset, pmap. It
currently supports Linux, Windows, OSX, FreeBSD and Sun Solaris, both
32-bit and 64-bit architectures, with Python versions from 2.6 to 3.5
(users of Python 2.4 and 2.5 may use 2.1.3 version). PyPy is also known to
work.
New fatures
=========
- [Linux] disk_partitions() added support for ZFS filesystems.
- continuous tests integration for Windows
- continuous code quality test integration
Main bugfixes
===========
- [Windows] Process.open_files() no longer hangs. Instead it uses a
thred which times out and skips the file handle in case it's taking too
long
to be retrieved. (patch by Jeff Tang)
- [Windows] Process.name() no longer raises AccessDenied for pids owned
by another user.
- [Windows] Process.memory_info() no longer raises AccessDenied for pids
owned by another user.
- [Linux] Process.cmdline() can be truncated.
- [Windows] add inet_ntop function for Windows XP to support IPv6.

Subject: Nikola version 7.6.1 released
Message-ID:
On behalf of the Nikola team, I am pleased to announce the immediate
availability of Nikola v7.6.1. It fixes some bugs and adds new features.
What is Nikola?
===============
Nikola is a static site and blog generator, written in Python.
It can use Mako and Jinja2 templates, and input in many popular markup
formats, such as reStructuredText and Markdown ? and can even turn Jupyter
(IPython) Notebooks into blog posts! It also supports image galleries, and
is multilingual. Nikola is flexible, and page builds are extremely fast,
courtesy of doit (which is rebuilding only what has been changed).

development line leading up to 1.2, provides
more than a half-dozen minor fixes and
enhancements.
Note that the 1.1.x releases are "stable" and
tested snapshots of the trunk. They can be seen
as sub-milestones on the road towards Trac 1.2. As
opposed to maintenance releases, *we offer no
guarantees on feature and API compatibility from
one 1.1.x release to the next*.
However, by following 1.1.x you get a chance to
use new features earlier, and therefore be able to
contribute feedback when things are still in flux.
It's also less risky than just getting the latest
trunk, as we won't cut a 1.1.x release in the middle
of a series of changes (though we had and still intend
to have a good record of keeping things always working
on trunk).
The intended audience are therefore enthusiast Trac
users and Trac plugin developers. These packages should
*not* be integrated in distributions, for example.
The fixes made for 1.0.7 are also included.

Subject: Extending BaseHTTPServer The Easy Way
Message-ID: <314d452f-2ac5-402d-a715-b54882c2e413@googlegroups.com>
Here is the beginning of the README.md for
https://github.com/J-Adrian-Zimmer/ProgrammableServer.git
If you are a Python programmer wanting to set up a server for your own application, if you don't need a high volume, general purpose server and are put off by the complexities of Apache and BaseHTTPServer, then ProgrammableServer may be for you. It is easy to setup and, if necessary, reconfigure.
With ProgrammableServer, you can create a simple or complex application whose demands on a web server are few. You do this by writing one or more expanders each of which handles a single kind of request. Writing an expander is made easier because you have a choice of mixins to include. An expander mixin consists of a few functions that provide an environment customized to your needs.

Subject: [ANN] metamodule v1.0 released
Message-ID:
Hi all,
I'm pleased to announce the first release of 'metamodule', a new
package that allows you to safely and easily hook attribute access on
your package's module object (among other things). So for example, you
can easily set it up so that a submodule in your package is lazily
loaded the first time it is used, or so that a DeprecationWarning is
issued every time a global constant is accessed.

Subject: ANN: decorator-4.0.0 released
Message-ID: <9f4a1c67-f9cc-4366-9c62-1a67f22f91c0@googlegroups.com>
The decorator module is over ten years old, but still alive and
kicking. It is used by several frameworks and has been stable for a long
time. It is your best option if you want to preserve the signature of
decorated functions in a consistent way across Python
releases. Version 4.0 is fully compatible with the past, except for
one thing: support for Python 2.4 and 2.5 has been dropped and now
there is an unified code base for Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5.
You can download the new release from PyPI with the usual
$ pip install decorator
The source code and the documentation are on GitHub:
https://github.com/micheles/decorator/blob/4.0.0/documentation.rst (for Python 2.X)
https://github.com/micheles/decorator/blob/4.0.0/documentation3.rst (for Python 3.X)
What's new
---------------------
Since now there is a single manual for all Python versions, I took the
occasion for overhauling the documentation. Therefore, even if you are
an old time user, you may want to read the docs again, since several
examples have been improved. The packaging has been improved and I
am distributing the code in wheel format too. The integration with
setuptools has been improved and now you can use ``python setup.py
test`` to run the tests. A new utility function ``decorate(func,
caller)`` has been added, doing the same job that in the past was done
by ``decorator(caller, func)``. The old functionality is still there
for compatibility sake, but it is deprecated and not documented
anymore.
Apart from that, there is a new experimental feature. The decorator
module now includes an implementation of generic (multiple dispatch)
functions. The API is designed to mimic the one of
``functools.singledispatch`` (introduced in Python 3.4) but the
implementation is much simpler; moreover all the decorators involved
preserve the signature of the decorated functions.
Enjoy!

Subject: ANN: tsWxGTUI_PyVx 0.0.0 (pre-alpha) has been released.
Message-ID: <369af35c-00b7-43c8-b84d-3c437aa41ab9@googlegroups.com>
ANN: tsWxGTUI_PyVx 0.0.0 (pre-alpha) has been released.
What is it?
===========
tsWxGTUI_PyVx is a foundation for developing, operating and troubleshooting
Python and Python Curses based application programs embedded in local and
remote 32-/64-bit computer systems used to monitor and control mission
critical equipment.
The architecture features Python 2x & Python 3x based Command Line Interfaces
(CLI) and Python "Curses"-based "wxPython"-style, Graphical-Text User
Interfaces (GUI).
The tsWxGTUI_PyVx Application Programming Interface (API) for the CLI and
GUI are identical for the Python 2x and Python 3x versions. There are only
minor internal differences in the source code.
With it, you get that cross-platform, pixel-mode "wxPython" feeling on
character-mode 8-/16-color (xterm-family) & non-color (vt100-family)
terminals and terminal emulators.
What's new in version 0.0.0?
============================
Though the repository is extractable from its zip file after download,
only the two Site-Packages in its Source-Distribution are installable.
The extensive engineering notebook documention and two Developer-Sand-
boxes are not installable because they are provided only to facilitate
software development, maintenance and troubleshooting.
The two Site-Packages may be installed and verified via the approprite
install commands:
1. Example for installing and verifying the Python 2.x site-package:
a. cd ./tsWxGTUI_PyVx_Repository/SourceDistributions/
Site-Packages/tsWxGTUI_PyVx/Python-2x
b. python2.7 setup.py install
c. Follow the demonstration and test instructions in:
./tsWxGTUI_PyVx_Repository/Documents/Demo.txt
2. Example for installing and verifying the Python 3.x site-package:
a. cd ./tsWxGTUI_PyVx_Repository/SourceDistributions/
Site-Packages/tsWxGTUI_PyVx/Python-3x
b. python3.4 setup.py install
c. Follow the demonstration and test instructions in:
./tsWxGTUI_PyVx_Repository/Documents/Demo.txt
Features:
=========
1. Launching from command line interface mode
2. Frames, Dialogs, Scrolled Windows
3. Panels
4. Buttons, CheckBoxes, Radio Boxes/Buttons
5. Text Entry and Password Entry (still under development)
6. Splash Screen display constructed or re-used during launch
7. 68-color palette (mapped into 8-/16-color Curses palette)
8. Logging to Screen and Files
9. Event Handling (not yet general purpose)
10. Task Bar (not yet capable of changing focus)
11. Position and dimensions accepted in Pixel (default) or Character
(option) cell units.
Capabilities:
=============
1. A library of general-purpose, re-usable building block
modules for embedded systems. The building blocks:
a. Provides both Command Line and Graphical-style User
Interfaces that enable application developers to
focus on the application specific functionality and
not waste effort reinventing the functionality
typical of Command Line and Graphical User Interfaces.
b. Can operate in an isolated system (Stand-Alone mode)
or in a networked system (Stand-Among mode).
c. Are implemented in Python 2.x.
d. Are ported to Python 3.x using a Python program
(2to3) which reads Python 2.x source code and applies
a series of fixers to transform it into valid Python
3.x code. Debugging of the Python 3.x code may be
required to identify and resolve such runtime issues
as decoding the type of data returned by Python
curses modules.
2. Cross-platform designs run, without change, on Linux,
Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows (the latter requires
Cygwin, a Linux-like command line interface and GNU
tool add-on from Red Hat).
3. Command Line Interface includes building blocks that
create a sophisticated POSIX-/ Unix-like terminal
interface. It features:
a. Command line keyword/value pair option and positional
argument parsing (using the most recent Python argparse,
optparse or getopt package that is available).
Default parser supports typical options:
-h/--help,
-a/--about,
-d/--debug,
-v/--version
-V/--Verbose;
b. Error/exception handling displays messages on console
and returns Unix-style 8-bit exit code to coordinate
a sequence of multiple applications.
c. Event logging to application designated terminals,
files or devices.
d. Launching, event dispatching and terminating of the
Graphical-style User Interface.
e. Wrapper used to ensure that each application termin-
ates with the exit code and message appropriate for
co-ordination of a sequence of multiple applications.
f. Tool to scan an operator designated directory tree
and strip lines of source code of any superfluous
trailing blank characters.
g. Tool to create a copy of an operator designated
directory tree after stripping comments and doc
strings from Python source code to reduce required
embedded system storage resources.
h. Tool to scan an operator designated directory tree
and report on the total number of files, total number
of lines of code, total number of blank/comment lines
and their distribution among the file name extensions
associated with various programming language such as
Ada, Assembler, C/C++, Fortran, Pascal, Python, and
shell script.
4. Graphical-style User Interface includes building blocks
that create a sophisticated Desktop, Laptop and Work-
station Computer-like terminal interface. Using the
"nCurses" character-mode and xterm libraries of the
host platform, it emulates a subset of the "wxPython"
pixel-mode Graphical User Interface. This enables
"wxPython" applications to run with little, if any,
change if they neither use icons nor other bit-mapped
images, nor use proportional sized fonts or associated
special features. The emulation features the following
widgets:
a. Tiled (side-by-side) and overlapped (partially hidden)
windows.
b. Frames / Dialogs (top-level windows containing other
widgets).
c. Menu bars (windows) containing drop down menus
(windows).
d. Tool bars (windows) containing a collection of
windows for on-screen buttons, menus, or other input
or output widgets.
e. Status bars (windows) containing an information
window, at the bottom of a top-level window, some-
times divided into sections, each of which shows
different information).
f. Task bar (a top-level window) containing buttons for
windows used to control which top-level window has
focus and is not partially hidden.
g. Sizers (non-windows) containing box and grid sizers or
windows for tables of data or buttons.
h. Panels (windows) containing sizers or windows.
i. Buttons (windows) for operator control action trig-
gers,
j. Check boxes (windows) containing buttons for enab-
ling/disabling any one or combination of several
operator mode and option control action triggers.
k. Radio boxes (windows) containing buttons for choice
of one of several operator mode and option control
action triggers.
l. Gauges (windows) for horizontal and vertical bar graph
widgets.
m. Scrolled areas (windows) containing a scrollable
text window and horizontal and/or vertical scrollbars
(each with associated scroll position gauge and
scroll control buttons for action triggers.
n. Redirected output (a top-level window or log file)
containing system and application messages annotated
with date, time and event severity levels that are
printed or sent to syslog, stderr, stdout or scrolled
windows.
o. Splash screen (bit-mapped image) that notifies the
operator that the program is in the lengthy process
of loading.
Limitations:
============
1. Known "nCurses"-based, "wxPython" Emulation Limitations
a. Supports typical nCurses platforms with keyboard,
mouse and only 8-/16 color display terminal or term-
inal emulator despite some older host-specific curses
implementation reports of 88/256 available colors and
7744/32768 color pairs.
b. Supports typical nCurses platforms with keyboard, mouse
and 1-color phosphor vt100 and vt220 terminal or terminal
emulator despite some older host-specific curses implemen-
tations which report no mouse.
However, unlike the xterm mouse interface (which issues a
single hardware notification containing mouse id, mouse x-y-z
position, button id and the id for either a single/double/
triple click), the vt100/vt220 mouse interface (issues a
sequence of six hardware notifications each time a button
is pressed or released. The data from twelve notifications
must be parsed and re-assembled into a single xterm-type
notification before an association can be made between the
triggering (button) and event handling (frame) wxPython-style
GUI objects. Of the hardware notifications, the first six
describe the mouse id, mouse x-y-z position, button id and
button press state. The last six describe the mouse id,
mouse x-y-z position, button id and button release state.
As a consequence, the synthesized vt100/vt220 mouse event
processing recognizes single mouse button clicks but not
double or triple ones.
c. Bit-mapped images are NOT supported except for the
prerecorded one used at startup as a Splash screen.
d. Maps wxPython-style pixel dimensions into/from nCurses
character row and column cell units (emulation assumes
character cell equivalent pixel dimensions are 8 width
x 12 height). The operator must therefor manually con-
figure the terminal window to either use smaller fonts
or a larger window.
e. Supports the operator selected terminal/terminal
emulator fixed font with the blink, bold, dim,
normal, reverse, standout and underline attribute
changed/restored by the application as appropriate.
However, not all host operating system platforms
actually blink and some change colors instead.
f. Unverified support for nCurses platforms with key-
board, mouse and 256-color display terminal or
xterm_256color terminal emulator when control switch
to "USE_256_COLOR_PAIR_LIMIT" is deactivated.
g. Automatically maps 68-color, "wxPython" palette only
into available nCurses 8-/16-color xterm palette.
h. Automatically maps 68-color, "wxPython" palette only
into available nCurses 1-color (ON/OFF) vt100/vt220
palette.
2. Known "wxPython" Emulation Issues
a. Mouse Event handling is rudimentary but suitable for
left/middle/right button click, double-click use.
b. Queued GUI and non-GUI event processing is non-func-
tional while under development.
c. Frame / Dialog closing/resizing/deleting is is non-
functional while under development.
d. Frame / Dialog overlay stacking/hiding/unhiding is
non-functional while under development.
e. Dialog user keyboard input processing is not recom-
mended while under development.
f. Linux host platform-specific exceptions during the
determination of which GUI scrollbar object may
intermittantly occur with mouse clicks.
Requirements:
=============
Python 2.6.8-2.7.9 with curses and/or nCurses
Python 3.0.1-3.4.3 with curses and/or nCurses
Platforms:
==========
Except as noted below, the foundation is known to work with keyboard
and mouse input under:
1. Linux (CentOS 7, Debian 8, Fedora 22, OpenSuSE 13.1, Scientific 7
and Ubuntu 12.04-15.04) using "Terminal" application with
non-color (vt100, vt220), 8-color/64-color pair (xterm, xterm-color),
16-color/256-color pair xterm-16color, xterm-88color and xterm-256color)
terminals/terminal emulators
2. Mac OS X (10.3-10.10) using third-party "iTerm2" application with
non-color (vt100, vt220), 8-color/64-color pair (xterm, xterm-color),
16-color/256-color pair (xterm-16color, xterm-88color and xterm-256color)
terminals/terminal emulators
3. Microsoft Windows (requires Cygwin, free Linux-like plugin from
Red Hat with XP, 7, 8, 8.1 and 10 --- Technical Preview) using
"mintty" application with non-color (vt100, vt220), 8-color/64-color
pair (xterm, xterm-color), 16-color/256-color pair xterm-16color,
xterm-88color and xterm-256color) terminals/terminal emulators
4. Unix (PC-BSD 10, OpenIndiana 151a8, OpenSolaris 11) using "Terminal"
application with non-color (mouseless vt100 and vt220), 8-color/
64-color pair (xterm, xterm-color), 16-color/256-color pair
xterm-16color, xterm-88color and xterm-256color)
terminals/terminal emulators

SciPy 0.16.0 Release Notes
==========================
SciPy 0.16.0 is the culmination of 7 months of hard work. It contains
many new features, numerous bug-fixes, improved test coverage and
better documentation. There have been a number of deprecations and
API changes in this release, which are documented below. All users
are encouraged to upgrade to this release, as there are a large number
of bug-fixes and optimizations. Moreover, our development attention
will now shift to bug-fix releases on the 0.16.x branch, and on adding
new features on the master branch.
This release requires Python 2.6, 2.7 or 3.2-3.4 and NumPy 1.6.2 or greater.
Highlights of this release include:
- - A Cython API for BLAS/LAPACK in `scipy.linalg`
- - A new benchmark suite. It's now straightforward to add new benchmarks,
and
they're routinely included with performance enhancement PRs.
- - Support for the second order sections (SOS) format in `scipy.signal`.
New features
============
Benchmark suite
- ---------------
The benchmark suite has switched to using `Airspeed Velocity
`__ for benchmarking. You can
run the suite locally via ``python runtests.py --bench``. For more
details, see ``benchmarks/README.rst``.
`scipy.linalg` improvements
- ---------------------------
A full set of Cython wrappers for BLAS and LAPACK has been added in the
modules `scipy.linalg.cython_blas` and `scipy.linalg.cython_lapack`.
In Cython, these wrappers can now be cimported from their corresponding
modules and used without linking directly against BLAS or LAPACK.
The functions `scipy.linalg.qr_delete`, `scipy.linalg.qr_insert` and
`scipy.linalg.qr_update` for updating QR decompositions were added.
The function `scipy.linalg.solve_circulant` solves a linear system with
a circulant coefficient matrix.
The function `scipy.linalg.invpascal` computes the inverse of a Pascal
matrix.
The function `scipy.linalg.solve_toeplitz`, a Levinson-Durbin Toeplitz
solver,
was added.
Added wrapper for potentially useful LAPACK function ``*lasd4``. It
computes
the square root of the i-th updated eigenvalue of a positive symmetric
rank-one
modification to a positive diagonal matrix. See its LAPACK documentation and
unit tests for it to get more info.
Added two extra wrappers for LAPACK least-square solvers. Namely, they are
``*gelsd`` and ``*gelsy``.
Wrappers for the LAPACK ``*lange`` functions, which calculate various matrix
norms, were added.
Wrappers for ``*gtsv`` and ``*ptsv``, which solve ``A*X = B`` for
tri-diagonal
matrix ``A``, were added.
`scipy.signal` improvements
- ---------------------------
Support for second order sections (SOS) as a format for IIR filters
was added. The new functions are:
* `scipy.signal.sosfilt`
* `scipy.signal.sosfilt_zi`,
* `scipy.signal.sos2tf`
* `scipy.signal.sos2zpk`
* `scipy.signal.tf2sos`
* `scipy.signal.zpk2sos`.
Additionally, the filter design functions `iirdesign`, `iirfilter`,
`butter`,
`cheby1`, `cheby2`, `ellip`, and `bessel` can return the filter in the SOS
format.
The function `scipy.signal.place_poles`, which provides two methods to place
poles for linear systems, was added.
The option to use Gustafsson's method for choosing the initial conditions
of the forward and backward passes was added to `scipy.signal.filtfilt`.
New classes ``TransferFunction``, ``StateSpace`` and ``ZerosPolesGain`` were
added. These classes are now returned when instantiating
`scipy.signal.lti`.
Conversion between those classes can be done explicitly now.
An exponential (Poisson) window was added as `scipy.signal.exponential`,
and a
Tukey window was added as `scipy.signal.tukey`.
The function for computing digital filter group delay was added as
`scipy.signal.group_delay`.
The functionality for spectral analysis and spectral density estimation has
been significantly improved: `scipy.signal.welch` became ~8x faster and the
functions `scipy.signal.spectrogram`, `scipy.signal.coherence` and
`scipy.signal.csd` (cross-spectral density) were added.
`scipy.signal.lsim` was rewritten - all known issues are fixed, so this
function can now be used instead of ``lsim2``; ``lsim`` is orders of
magnitude
faster than ``lsim2`` in most cases.
`scipy.sparse` improvements
- ---------------------------
The function `scipy.sparse.norm`, which computes sparse matrix norms, was
added.
The function `scipy.sparse.random`, which allows to draw random variates
from
an arbitrary distribution, was added.
`scipy.spatial` improvements
- ----------------------------
`scipy.spatial.cKDTree` has seen a major rewrite, which improved the
performance of the ``query`` method significantly, added support for
parallel
queries, pickling, and options that affect the tree layout. See pull
request
4374 for more details.
The function `scipy.spatial.procrustes` for Procrustes analysis (statistical
shape analysis) was added.
`scipy.stats` improvements
- --------------------------
The Wishart distribution and its inverse have been added, as
`scipy.stats.wishart` and `scipy.stats.invwishart`.
The Exponentially Modified Normal distribution has been
added as `scipy.stats.exponnorm`.
The Generalized Normal distribution has been added as `scipy.stats.gennorm`.
All distributions now contain a ``random_state`` property and allow
specifying a
specific ``numpy.random.RandomState`` random number generator when
generating
random variates.
Many statistical tests and other `scipy.stats` functions that have multiple
return values now return ``namedtuples``. See pull request 4709 for
details.
`scipy.optimize` improvements
- -----------------------------
A new derivative-free method DF-SANE has been added to the nonlinear
equation
system solving function `scipy.optimize.root`.
Deprecated features
===================
``scipy.stats.pdf_fromgamma`` is deprecated. This function was
undocumented,
untested and rarely used. Statsmodels provides equivalent functionality
with ``statsmodels.distributions.ExpandedNormal``.
``scipy.stats.fastsort`` is deprecated. This function is unnecessary,
``numpy.argsort`` can be used instead.
``scipy.stats.signaltonoise`` and ``scipy.stats.mstats.signaltonoise`` are
deprecated. These functions did not belong in ``scipy.stats`` and are
rarely
used. See issue #609 for details.
``scipy.stats.histogram2`` is deprecated. This function is unnecessary,
``numpy.histogram2d`` can be used instead.
Backwards incompatible changes
==============================
The deprecated global optimizer ``scipy.optimize.anneal`` was removed.
The following deprecated modules have been removed: ``scipy.lib.blas``,
``scipy.lib.lapack``, ``scipy.linalg.cblas``, ``scipy.linalg.fblas``,
``scipy.linalg.clapack``, ``scipy.linalg.flapack``. They had been
deprecated
since Scipy 0.12.0, the functionality should be accessed as
`scipy.linalg.blas`
and `scipy.linalg.lapack`.
The deprecated function ``scipy.special.all_mat`` has been removed.
The deprecated functions ``fprob``, ``ksprob``, ``zprob``, ``randwcdf``
and ``randwppf`` have been removed from `scipy.stats`.
Other changes
=============
The version numbering for development builds has been updated to comply
with PEP 440.
Building with ``python setup.py develop`` is now supported.
