[SciPy-User] ANN: python-sundials

[Gökhan Sever]

Hello,

I have heard of Sundials library used in a cloud modelling application
(Particularly in a C++ model -- a modelling / simulation paper titled Adaptive
method of lines for multi-component aerosol condensational growth and CCN
activation <http://www.geosci-model-dev.net/4/15/2011/gmd-4-15-2011.html>)

Could you please give some highlights of what advantages the Sundials
package have over Scipy's ODE solvers? Do these two solvers aim at different
domains?

Thanks.
