====================================
 Python bindings for Blitz++ Arrays
====================================

This package is part of the signal-processing and machine learning toolbox
Bob_. It provides a bridge between our C++ array infrastructure (based on
Blitz++) and NumPy arrays. Almost all of our Python C/C++ extensions use this
package to transparently and efficiently convert NumPy arrays to Blitz++ arrays
and vice-versa.


Installation
------------

Follow our `installation`_ instructions. Then, using the Python interpreter
inside that distribution, bootstrap and buildout this package::

  $ python bootstrap-buildout.py
  $ ./bin/buildout
