PySL

PySL is a package that bridges the gap between S-Lang and Python by making S-Lang functions and variables accessible to Python users. This powerful package enables the transfer of data types between S-Lang and Python scopes, including the Python-side equivalent of S-Lang arrays through numarray.

Furthermore, PySL empowers users to easily call both intrinsic and user-defined S-Lang functions, including those defined by imported modules, from Python. All of this functionality is made possible via a simple, module-like interface, allowing users to transition between languages with ease.

One of the primary motivations behind the development of PySL was to allow Python users to leverage the extensive assortment of S-Lang packages and modules created for use with CIAO. As a result, the included examples are primarily focused on CIAO-related applications. For more general use cases, the PySL documentation offers additional examples and guidance. Overall, PySL offers extensive capabilities for users seeking to integrate S-Lang functionality into their Python workflows.
