Description:

MPI for Python provides bindings of the Message Passing Interface
(MPI) standard for the Python programming language, allowing any
Python program to exploit multiple processors.

This package is constructed on top of the MPI-1/2 specifications and
provides an object oriented interface which closely follows MPI-2 C++
bindings. It supports point-to-point (sends, receives) and collective
(broadcasts, scatters, gathers) communications of any picklable Python
object, as well as optimized communications of Python object exposing
the single-segment buffer interface (NumPy arrays, builtin
bytes/string/array objects).
