Description: ================
        Spectral Toolbox
        ================
        
        The SpectralToolbox is a collection of tools useful for spectral approximation methods in one or more dimensions.
        It include the construction of traditional orthogonal polynomials. Additionally one can construct orthogonal polynomials with respect to a selected measure.
        
        Description
        ===========
        
        Implementation of Spectral Methods in N dimension.
        
        Available polynomials:
            * Jacobi
            * Hermite Physicist
            * Hermite Function
            * Hermite Probabilistic
            * Laguerre Polynomial
            * Laguerre Function
            * ORTHPOL package (generation of recursion coefficients using [1]_)
        
        Available quadrature rules (related to selected polynomials):
            * Gauss
            * Gauss-Lobatto
            * Gauss-Radau
        
        Available quadrature rules (without polynomial selection):
            * Kronrod-Patterson on the real line
            * Kronrod-Patterson uniform
            * Clenshaw-Curtis
            * Fejer's
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        For everything to go smooth, I suggest that you first install some dependencies separately: `numpy <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/numpy>`_, `scipy <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/scipy>`_, `matplotlib <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/matplotlib>`_ can be installed by:
        
            $ pip install numpy scipy matplotlib
        
        If you want to accelerate some of the functionalities and work with orthogonal polynomials with respect to arbitrary measures, you should intall the `orthpol <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/orthpol>`_ package. This dependency is optional. If this is not resolved automatically during the installation of the toolbox, you might have to set some flags for the compilers (with gcc nothing is needed).
        
           $ pip install orthpol
        
        Finally you can install the toolbox by:
        
           $ pip install SpectralToolbox
