HSL.py is a set of Cython/Python interfaces to some of the Harwell Subroutine Library: a collection of state-of-the-art packages for large-scale scientific computation. These packages are written mostly in Fortran and often provide C interfaces but no Python interfaces.
HSL.py provides interfaces to
- ordering methods:
- scaling methods:
- mc29: calculate scaling factors of a sparse (un)symmetric matrix (single and double precision);
- linear solvers:
In order to build previous interfaces, you need to provide source code from the Harwell Subroutine Library. All required packages are available free of charge to academics. Just follow hyperlinks in upper section and fill the licence agreement on their website and you are done!
HSL.py also depends on
- NumPy;
And optionaly on
- CySparse;
If you intend to generate the documentation:
- Sphinx;
- sphinx_bootstrap_theme;
To run the tests:
- nose;

python setup.py install.
weird behaviour of Cython, cannot cythonize some .pyx files using setup.py but works when invoking cython from command line ... So I modified setup.py to create c file using command line "cython"
cython -I ~/work/VirtualEnvs/nlpy_new/programs/cysparse/_cyma57.pyx
- remove pysparse from cyma27
- remove pysparse from cyma57
- make it work with CySparse
- create documentation
- update documentation
- add more tests
- make it work for single precision (cygenja?)
