ipython: Interactive computing environment with an enhanced interactive Python shell¶
Description¶
Interactive computing environment with an enhanced interactive Python shell
From the IPython website:
IPython is a multiplatform, Free Software project (BSD licensed) that offers:
- An enhanced Python shell designed for efficient interactive work. It includes many enhancements over the default Python shell, including the ability for controlling interactively all major GUI toolkits in a non-blocking manner. 
- A library to build customized interactive environments using Python as the basic language (but with the possibility of having extended or alternate syntaxes). 
- A system for interactive distributed and parallel computing (this is part of IPython’s new development).
