Description: ======
        Padova
        ======
        
        Padova is a small python package for working with the so-called `Padova evolutionary tracks <http://stev.oapd.inaf.it/cgi-bin/cmd>`_ produced by Girardi and collaborators.
        Padova is compatible with the `Astropy`_ project.
        
        Take a look at this `Jupyter notebook <http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/jonathansick/padova/blob/master/notebooks/demo.ipynb>`_ to see what Padova can do.
        
        Of course, please use this project *responsibly*.
        Don't abuse the CMD servers.
        
        
        Features
        --------
        
        - Simple interfaces to obtain either single isochrones or grids of isochrones.
        - Validation of settings before requesting data from the CMD servers.
        - Caching of requests so you don't hit the CMD servers when you ask for an isochrone set you already have.
        - Isochrones are provided as `Astropy`_ tables with metadata.
