Fully supported, tested, documented

Trusted algorithms for over 40 years

The only available source for many analytic algorithms in

Pythonespecially areas like statistics, forecasting, differential equations,

neural networks, genetic algorithms, classification.

Tuned, high performance C based algorithms

Available in many other languages (C, C#, Java,

Fortran) and on many platforms

PyIMSL can greatly reduce the time and effort in

prototyping applications and then moving them into a

production environment.Rapidly prototype in Python

Productize and deploy in native Python

or…Productize and deploy in native C/C++, Java, C#, or FORTRAN

No need to use different analytics in prototype work and

deployment, which introduces risks in that results may not match.

In-depth documentation with usage, algorithm

descriptions, references and sample code

Wrappers for all IMSL C Library functionalityAPI closely matches the IMSL C Library API

Wrappers are written in PythonUses Python ctypes package to interface to IMSL shared libs

Integrated with NumPy for array support

The IMSL C Library API is presented with a fully Python

style interface.Positional and keyword parameters are used extensively.

Data can be passed using many collection types including lists,

tuples and NumPy ndarrays

PyIMSL analytics combined with ActivePython

provide a robust platform for the development of

commercial mission critical analytic applications

The breadth of functionality, performance and

accuracy of the IMSL libraries are unmatched for

analytical and statistical work in Python
