Collection of tools that I'm gathering while doing astronomy/astrophysics research with Python. For example,

• Create, merge, append with numpy.recarrays (rec.py)
• Make latex tables from (record) arrays (latex.py)
• Convert between magnitude and luminosity (stellar.py)
• I/O convenience for fits/ascii/json tables (io.py)
• Convert MJD to anything (simtime.py)
• Binning, e.g. to make luminosity functions (simstat.py)

Requirements:

• numpy
• astropy - http://www.astropy.org/

Optional:

• matplotlib
• scipy
• APLpy - http://aplpy.github.com/
• k3match - http://pschella.github.com/k3match

To use, at your own risk, run python setup.py install (or place this folder in your $PYTHONPATH)
