Description: pypolymake
        ==========
        
        What is it?
        -----------
        
        The Python module pypolymake provides wrappers for `polymake
        <https://polymake.org/doku.php>`_.
        
        The language has been kept as close as possible as the original. The
        following polymake construction::
        
            polytope> $c = cube(5);
            polytope> print $c->F_VECTOR;
            32 80 80 40 10
            polytope> $g = $c->GRAPH;
            polytope> print $g->DIAMETER;
            5
        
        is translated in Python as::
        
            >>> from polymake import *
            >>> c = cube(5)
            >>> print(c.F_VECTOR)
            (32, 80, 80, 40, 10)
            >>> g = c.GRAPH
            >>> print(g.DIAMETER)
            5
        
        The library is currently under development and is compatible with Python2 and
        Python3. As it is under development, many things are not working and are likely
        to break.
        
        Installation and source code
        ----------------------------
        
        To install pypolymake you need polymake in version 3.0 or later together with
        its header files. You also need `Cython <http://cython.org/>`_.
        
        The simplest way to install the package is to use::
        
            $ pip install pypolymake --user
        
        (the `--user` argument make the installation in your home directory and can be
        omitted if you have write access to your system).  Alternatively,
        you can download (or clone) the source repository at https://github.com/videlec/pypolymake
        and then run in that directory::
        
            $ python setup.py install --user
        
        If polymake headers or libraries are installed in a non standard location you
        may need to set the environment variables CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS. For example,
        on OS X, you need to update LDFLAGS as::
        
            $ export LDFLAGS="-L/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/ $LDFLAGS"
            $ python setup.py install --user
        
        You might also need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH before starting Python if the shared
        library of polymake (libpolymake.so) is not in a standard directory.
