NCephes

This package provides a python interface for the Cephes library. It also supports Numba and its nopython mode.

Usage

>>> from ncephes import incbet
>>> print("{:.3f}".format(incbet(1., 3., 0.3)))
0.657

You can also call them inside a numba function

>>> from ncephes import incbet
>>> from numba import jit
>>>
>>> @jit
... def numba_incbet(a, b, x):
...     return incbet(a, b, x)
>>>
>>> print("{:.3f}".format(numba_incbet(1., 3., 0.3)))
0.657

and with nopython mode and nogil enabled

>>> from ncephes import incbet
>>> from numba import jit
>>>
>>> @jit(nogil=True, nopython=True)
... def numba_incbet(a, b, x):
...     return incbet(a, b, x)
>>>
>>> print("{:.3f}".format(numba_incbet(1., 3., 0.3)))
0.657

One can also statically link the compiled Cephes libraries ncprob and ncellf. Please, have a peek at the examples/prj_name for a minimalistic example.
