Python wrapper for the ORTHPOL package
Project description
This is the orthpol package. It is a frontend to the Fortran package orthpol written by W Gautschi [1].
[1] Gautschi, W. (1994). Algorithm 726: ORTHPOL–a package of routines for generating orthogonal polynomials and Gauss-type quadrature rules. ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software (TOMS), 20(1), 21–62. doi:10.1145/174603.174605
Status

Requirements
The package depends on a C++ porting of the Fortran library orthpol. Thus both C++ and Fortran compilers must be installed on the machine. The code is tested using the GCC compiler suite or clang for the compilation and linking of C++ code, and the gfortran compiler for the Fortran part of the code.
Installation
Make sure to have an up-to-date version of pip:
$ pip install –upgrade pip
Automatically install the software using the command:
$ pip install orthpol
If this doesn’t work, the package can be manually downloaded and installed through the following procedure:
$ cd <download_dir>
$ pip download orthpol
$ tar xzf orthpol-X.X.X.tar.gz
$ cd orthpol-X.X.X
$ python setup.py install
Change Log
- 0.1.0:
Initial python porting (working only for python 2.x)
- 0.2.0:
Modified interface to account for changes in the SpectralToolbox
Complete integration of orthpol into SpectralToolbox
- 0.2.1:
Porting to python 3.x and back compatibility with python 2.x
Automated installation through pip
- 0.2.2:
Bug fix
- 0.2.13:
Improved install script.
- 0.2.14:
