Description:

pynbody 1.6.0.post0

pynbody

Pynbody is an analysis framework for
N-body and hydrodynamic astrophysical simulations supporting PKDGRAV/Gasoline,
Gadget, Gadget4/Arepo, N-Chilada and RAMSES AMR outputs. It supports Python 3
only (versions prior to 1.0 are still available on PyPI for Python 2).
Minor version support adheres roughly to NEP29.
Written in Python, the core tools are accompanied by a library of
publication-level analysis routines. For a quick tour of some of
the features, have a look at this IPython notebook.
Getting started
If python and the standard pip package manager is installed and properly configured, you can simply do:
$ pip install pynbody

If this fails, you may need some more detailed installation
instructions. Once
you have the package installed, try the introductory
tutorials.
The full documentation can be found
here.
Contributing

You can do this by creating a tutorial or cookbook or by adding your code to the relevant sub-module and submitting a pull request (make a fork first -- see https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests).
Acknowledging the code
