Abstract
This document describes petsc4py, a Python port to the PETSc libraries.
PETSc (the Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation) is a suite of data structures and routines for the scalable (parallel) solution of scientific applications modeled by partial differential equations. It employs the MPI standard for all message-passing communication.
This package provides an important subset of PETSc functionalities and uses NumPy to efficiently manage input and output of array data.
