SciPy (pronounced /ˈsaɪpaɪ/ "sigh pie"[2]) is a free and open-source Python library used for scientific computing and technical computing.[3]
SciPy contains modules for optimization, linear algebra, integration, interpolation, special functions, FFT, signal and image processing, ODE solvers and other tasks common in science and engineering.
SciPy is also a family of conferences for users and developers of these tools: SciPy (in the United States), EuroSciPy (in Europe) and SciPy.in (in India).[4] Enthought originated the SciPy conference in the United States and continues to sponsor many of the international conferences as well as host the SciPy website.
The SciPy library is currently distributed under the BSD license, and its development is sponsored and supported by an open community of developers. It is also supported by NumFOCUS, a community foundation for supporting reproducible and accessible science.
