Overview of SciPy

SciPy is an extensive library for applied mathematics and scientific computation. The following is the complete list of all the modules available in the library:

Module	Functionality
cluster	Clustering algorithms
constants	Physical and mathematical constants
fftpack	Fast Fourier Transform
integrate	Integration and ordinary differential equations
interpolate	Interpolation and splines
io	Input and output
linalg	Linear algebra
ndimage	Image processing
odr	Orthogonal distance regression
optimize	Optimization and root-finding
signal	Signal processing
sparse	Sparse matrices
spatial	Spatial data structures
special	Special functions
stats	Statistical distributions
weave	C/C++ integration

The standard way to import SciPy modules in scripts is using the following command line:

from scipy import signal

Then, individual functions can be called with the usual module reference syntax, as follows:

signal.correlate(…)...
