Today's scientists often turn to Python to run analysis, simulation, and other sciency tasks.

That makes us wonder: which Python libraries are most influential in scientific research? 

We just released a tool (built in Python, of course) to answer that question. It's called Depsy [1], it's funded by the US National Science Foundation, and we'd love your comments.

For more information, see our blog post [2] and paper [3].  The scientific/engineering tag is a great place to start exploring [4].
