Citing IPython
================
If IPython been significant to a project that leads to an academic publication,
please acknowledge that fact by citing the project. As of now, the canonical
academic reference for IPython is `this paper
<http://fperez.org/papers/ipython07_pe-gr_cise.pdf>`_, for which here are both
a BibTex and a plaintext reference you can use::
@Article{PER-GRA:2007,
Author = {P\'erez, Fernando and Granger, Brian E.},
Title = {{IP}ython: a System for Interactive Scientific Computing},
Journal = {Computing in Science and Engineering},
Volume = {9},
Number = {3},
Pages = {21--29},
month = may,
year = 2007,
url = "http://ipython.org",
ISSN = "1521-9615",
doi = {10.1109/MCSE.2007.53},
publisher = {IEEE Computer Society},
}
or in plaintext:
Fernando Pérez, Brian E. Granger, *IPython: A System for Interactive
Scientific Computing*, Computing in Science and Engineering, vol. 9, no. 3,
pp. 21-29, May/June 2007, doi:10.1109/MCSE.2007.53. URL: http://ipython.org
Thank you!
