  Description     : CVXOPT -- A Python Package for Convex Optimization
   CVXOPT is a Python package for convex optimization. It includes
    * Python classes for storing and manipulating dense and sparse matrices
    * an interface to most of the double-precision real and complex BLAS
    * an interface to the dense linear equation solvers and eigenvalue
      routines from LAPACK
    * interfaces to the sparse LU and Cholesky solvers from UMFPACK and
      CHOLMOD.
    * routines for solving convex optimization problems, an interface to
      the linear programming solver in GLPK, and interfaces to the
      linear and quadratic programming solvers in MOSEK
    * a modeling tool for specifying convex piecewise-linear
      optimization problems.
