Sounds like an awesome platform! another emphatic vote for matplotlib and in no particular order: PIL pyfftw pytables django (and possibly associated modules like django-south) pyro (I use this for both control of remote devices, and as the basis of a distributed analysis backend) mysql pyserial (not sure how relevant this is on your platform) (Some of these have a bit of a web app type slant, but figure that this might be where you're looking to go anyway - I've got a neat temperature monitoring app which produces temperature history graphs with a web interface using numpy, scipy, matplotlib, django and an SQL database on a server. This is linked via pyro to a second computer which runs some custom driver code for an obscure ADC board that monitors the temperature sensors. ) ________________________________ From: Ralf Gommers <ralf.gommers@googlemail.com> To: SciPy Users List <scipy-user@scipy.org> Sent: Sunday, 24 June 2012 11:38 PM Subject: Re: [SciPy-User] Useful libraries beyond numpy and scipy?

I've been working on a small board for scientists (and artists) that runs Python. The idea is to make something like an Arduino, but beefed up to handle real web traffic. Some background on the board at http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/13/rascal-micro-hands-on-video/ and more at http://rascalmicro.com
Looks awesome, thanks for sharing.
I'm shipping boards with scipy and numpy preinstalled, and I'm wondering what other libraries complement those two well. I'm aware of (and actually have a library of my own listed on) the list at http://www.scipy.org/Topical_Software but it's hard to tell what's both mature and widely used.
What are the top 3 or 4 libraries you use, either for control during experiments or for data analysis?
For data analysis scikit-image, statsmodels and scikit-learn would be high on my list. Plus matplotlib, to not have to learn jQplot. Ralf _______________________________________________ SciPy-User mailing list SciPy-User@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/scipy-user
