ActivePapers.Py is a tool for working with executable papers, which combine data, code, and documentation in single-file packages, suitable for publication as supplementary material or on sites such as Figshare.

The ActivePapers.Py system requires Python 2.7 or Python 3.x plus the following libraries:

• NumPy 1.6 or later (http://numpy.scipy.org/)
