This package is still under construction... Many of the available C++ routines have not yet been wrapped for python, but the basic ones have.
LLE is a set of python bindings to a C++ package written by Jake Vanderplas
The required dependencies to build the software are python >= 2.5, setuptools, NumPy >= 1.2, SciPy >= 0.7 and a working C++ compiler.
Also requires the FORTRAN libraries BLAS, LAPACK, and ARPACK. These can be downloaded at:
http://www.netlib.org/lapack/ http://www.netlib.org/blas/ http://www.caam.rice.edu/software/ARPACK/
if python+numpy is installed on your system, you may already have a working BLAS and LAPACK installation.
This packages uses distutils, which is the default way of installing python modules. To install in your home directory, use:
python setup.py install --home
To install for all users on Unix/Linux:
