Overview
This package provides Python bindings for the Message Passing
Interface (MPI <https://www.mpi-forum.org/>_) standard. It is
implemented on top of the MPI specification and exposes an API which
grounds on the standard MPI-2 C++ bindings.
Prerequisites
-
Python <https://www.python.org/>_ 3.10 or above, orPyPy <https://www.pypy.org/>_ 7.3 or above. -
An MPI implementation like
MPICH <https://www.mpich.org/>_ orOpen MPI <https://www.open-mpi.org/>_ built with shared/dynamic libraries.
