TRANSCRIPT

Python / PyLab environment for 32‐bit Windows: M. McLeod  2010‐06‐10  Python is a flexible interactive programming language commonly used in the ALMA project, especially for writing test scripts and for prototyping control software.   IPython is a very convenient shell for interacting with Python.   These along with a few widely used libraries for numerical analysis and plotting yield a yield a convenient interactive data analysis environment similar to MatLab.  Base system required:   Python 2.6  Packages Required: Matplotlib – plotting package Numpy – numerical analysis and matrix math Statlib – statistical package IPython – interactive shell, provides "PyLab" mode similar to MatLab PyReadLine – library required by IPython for color text support  Download Python and install 2.6.5 Windows installer:
