A suite of parsers designed to make interacting with
SERPENT [1] output files simple and flawless.
The SERPENT Monte Carlo code
is developed by VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Ltd.
More information, including distribution and licensing of SERPENT can be
found at montecarlo.vtt.fi
The serpentTools package can be downloaded either as a git repository or
as a zipped file. Both can be obtained through the Clone or download option
at the
serpent-tools GitHub.
Once the repository has been downloaded or extracted from zip, the package can be installed with:
cd serpentTools python setup.py install python setup.py test
Installing with setuptools
is preferred over the standard distutils module. setuptools can be
installed with pip as:
pip install -U setuptools
Installing in this manner ensures that the supporting packages,
like numpy are installed and up to date.
If you have issues installing the project, find a bug, or want to add a feature, the GitHub issue page is the best place to do that.
