+SciPy (pronounced "Sigh Pie") is open-source software for mathematics,
+science, and engineering.
+The SciPy library is built to work with NumPy arrays, and provides many
+user-friendly and efficient numerical routines such as routines for numerical
+integration and optimization. Together, they run on all popular operating
+systems, are quick to install, and are free of charge. NumPy and SciPy are
+easy to use, but powerful enough to be depended upon by some of the world's
+leading scientists and engineers.
+
+This package requires NumPy, Matplotlib, iPython, BLAS, LAPACK, and FFTW.
