Continuous system simulation in Python

[phil_nospam_schmidt at yahoo.com]

Nicholas,

I have a particular interest in this subject as well. I've also used
the Python/Scipy combination, and it is a tantalizing combination, but
I found it to be a bit more clumsy than I'd like. Plus, my need for
continuous-time simulation is not as great as it has been in the past.

That said, I've been down this path before (see
http://custom.lab.unb.br/pub/asme/DYNAMICS/BUFORD1.zip), and I would be
interested in helping to develop something. I agree that Python would
be a great foundation to build upon.
