math/py-numexpr 2.14.2

numexpr - Fast numerical array expression evaluator for Python and NumPy.

The numexpr package evaluates multiple-operator array expressions many times faster than NumPy can. It accepts the expression as a string, analyzes it, rewrites it more efficiently, and compiles it to faster Python code on the fly. It's the next best thing to writing the expression in C and compiling it with a specialized just-in-time (JIT) compiler, i.e. it does not require a compiler at runtime.

Also, numexpr has support for the Intel VML (Vector Math Library) -- integrated in Intel MKL (Math Kernel Library) --, allowing nice speed-ups when computing transcendental functions (like trigonometrical, exponentials...) on top of Intel-compatible platforms. This support also allows to use multiple cores in your computations.
