        Introduction
        ------------
        This package implements the PC-SAFT equation of state. In addition to the hard chain and dispersion terms, these functions also include dipole, association and ion terms for use with these types of compounds. When the ion term is included it is also called electrolyte PC-SAFT (ePC-SAFT).
        
        Documentation
        -------------
        Documentation for the package is available on `Read the Docs`_.
        
        Example
        -------
        .. code-block:: python
        
          import numpy as np
          from pcsaft import pcsaft_den
        
          # Toluene
          x = np.asarray([1.])
          m = np.asarray([2.8149])
          s = np.asarray([3.7169])
          e = np.asarray([285.69])
          pyargs = {'m':m, 's':s, 'e':e}
        
          t = 320 # K
          p = 101325 # Pa
          den = pcsaft_den(t, p, x, pyargs, phase='liq')
          print('Density of toluene at {} K: {} mol m^-3'.format(t, den))
        
          # Water using default 2B association scheme
          x = np.asarray([1.])
          m = np.asarray([1.2047])
          e = np.asarray([353.95])
          volAB = np.asarray([0.0451])
          eAB = np.asarray([2425.67])
        
          t = 274
          p = 101325
          s = np.asarray([2.7927 + 10.11*np.exp(-0.01775*t) - 1.417*np.exp(-0.01146*t)]) # temperature dependent sigma is used for better accuracy
          pyargs = {'m':m, 's':s, 'e':e, 'e_assoc':eAB, 'vol_a':volAB}
          den = pcsaft_den(t, p, x, pyargs, phase='liq')
          print('Density of water at {} K: {} mol m^-3'.format(t, den))
          
          # Water using 4C association scheme
          x = np.asarray([1.])
          m = np.asarray([1.2047])
          e = np.asarray([353.95])
          volAB = np.asarray([0.0451])
          eAB = np.asarray([2425.67])
          assoc_schemes = ['4c']
        
          t = 274
          p = 101325
          s = np.asarray([2.7927 + 10.11*np.exp(-0.01775*t) - 1.417*np.exp(-0.01146*t)]) # temperature dependent sigma is used for better accuracy
          pyargs = {'m':m, 's':s, 'e':e, 'e_assoc':eAB, 'vol_a':volAB, 'assoc_scheme':assoc_schemes}
          den = pcsaft_den(t, p, x, pyargs, phase='liq')
          print('Density of water at {} K: {} mol m^-3'.format(t, den))
        
        Dependencies
        ------------
        
        The Numpy and Scipy packages are required. The core functions have been written in C++ to improve calculation speed, so Cython_ is needed, along with the Eigen_ package for linear algebra. For unit testing pytest is used.
        
        Python package
        --------------
        
        To make it easier to use this code, it has been added as a package to PyPi (pcsaft_), which means it can be installed using pip. This allows you to use the code without needing to compile the Cython code yourself. Binaries might not be available for all platforms or Python versions.
        
        Compiling with Cython
        ---------------------
        
        To speed up the original Python code the core functions have been rewritten in C++. These are then connected with the remaining Python code using Cython. This gave a significant improvement in speed. The Cython code needs to be compiled before use. To do so install Cython. Then run the following command from the directory containing the PC-SAFT code
        
        ::
        
          python setup.py build_ext --inplace
        
        Make sure that the Eigen header files are somewhere on your path. More about the Cython build process can be found from the `Cython documentation`_.
        
        The original Python-only code has been removed from the repository. If you still want to use the original Python-only functions, go back to an `earlier version`_ of the repository. Note that the Python-only code is no longer maintained, so it may not be as reliable as the Cython code.
