  Description     : Utility functions for iterators, functions, and dictionaries

Toolz provides a set of utility functions for iterators, functions, and
dictionaries. These functions interoperate well and form the building blocks
of common data analytic operations. They extend the standard libraries
itertools and functools and borrow heavily from the standard libraries of
contemporary functional languages.

- Toolz is a widely used utility library and also a dependency of dask,
  that I intend to package.
- This package will be maintained with assistance from the NeuroDebian team.
