"""
This is the **MPI for Python** package.
What is *MPI*?
==============
The *Message Passing Interface*, is a standardized and portable
message-passing system designed to function on a wide variety of
parallel computers. The standard defines the syntax and semantics of
library routines and allows users to write portable programs in the
main scientific programming languages (Fortran, C, or C++). Since
its release, the MPI specification has become the leading standard
for message-passing libraries for parallel computers.
What is *MPI for Python*?
=========================
*MPI for Python* provides MPI bindings for the Python programming
language, allowing any Python program to exploit multiple processors.
This package is constructed on top of the MPI-1/2 specifications and
provides an object oriented interface which closely follows MPI-2 C++
bindings.
