+ <p>Pyrap is the python interface to the Radio-Astronomical Package
+ casacore (<a href="http://casacore.googlecode.com/"
+ >casacore.googlecode.com</a>). Astronomers love pyrap because
+ it makes it easily possible to get their data (observed with
+ radio-astronomical telescopes like LOFAR, ASKAP, and eVLA) in numpy
+ arrays and do basic data inspection and manipulation using the many
+ python packages that are available.</p>
+
+ <p>Boost.Python made it quite easily possible to create converters for
+ the various data types, also for numpy arrays and individual elements
+ of a numpy array. It's nice they work fully recursively. Mapping C++
+ functions to Python was straightforward.</p>
