+Sparse data refers to datasets where a high percentage of the values are zero
+or empty, which occurs where relationships across dimensions don’t exist or are
+neglected. This project will introduce sparse array data structures that
+provide array semantics to enable straightforward interaction with sparse data.
+This includes the design and implementation of 1D and 2D sparse array data
+structures, as well as expanding on the existing scipy.sparse package.
