+Test code for user defined types in Numpy
+=========================================
+
+This code implements fixed precision rational numbers exposed to Python as
+a test of user-defined type support in Numpy.
+
+### Dependencies
+
+* [python](http://python.org)
+* [numpy](http://numpy.scipy.org): Requires a patched version (see below)
+* [py.test](http://pytest.org): To run tests
+
+On a Mac, these can be obtained through [MacPorts](http://www.macports.org) via
+
+    sudo port install py26-numpy py26-py
+
+The original version of this code exposed several bugs in the (hopefully) old
+version of numpy, so if it fails try upgrading numpy.  My branch which fixed
+all but one of the bugs uncovered is here:
+
+    https://github.com/girving/numpy/tree/fixuserloops
+
+These changes should be incorporated in the main numpy git repo fairly soon.
+
+### Usage
+
+To build and run the 
4930
tests, do
+
+    make
+    py.test
