SCIRIS
sciris.orgSciris is a library of tools that makes writing scientific Python code easier and more pleasant. Extending NumPy and Matplotlib, it covers a wide range of common math, file I/O and plotting operations so users can do more with less code. Sciris describes itself as a library of the gaps, addressing annoyances too small for dedicated libraries but common enough to add up, and it is described in the Journal of Open Source Software.
