Description: 
        `Topographica`_ is a software package for computational modeling of
        neural maps. The goal is to help researchers understand brain function
        at the level of the topographic maps that make up sensory and motor
        systems.

        Installation
        ============
        
        Here we give a brief summary; please see
        http://topographica.org/Downloads for full details.
        
        If you have `easy_install`_ or `pip`_ (or similar), you can use one of
        those to install Topographica and its dependencies automatically
        (e.g. ``easy_install topographica`` or ``pip install topographica``).
        
        Alternatively, you can download and unpack the archive below, and then
        install Topographica with a command like ``python setup.py install``
        (e.g. ``sudo python setup.py install`` for a site-wide installation,
        or ``python setup.py install --user`` to install into
        ``~/.local``). You will need to install at least `NumPy`_ and `PIL`_
        before running Topographica. We also recommend that you install
        `MatPlotLib`_ so you can access all Topographica's plots, as well as
        `Gmpy`_ and Weave (available as part of `SciPy`_) for optimum
        performance.
