  Description     : Miscellaneous tools for scientific computing

Miscellaneous tools for data analysis and scientific computing.  This
package provides a LOESS (locally estimated scatterplot smoothing)
module


Currently scanpy depends on it which is a widely used bioinformatics toolkit,
and LOESS does look like a generally useful technique. I do wish upstream had a
better name and description though.

I'd like to add it to the python modules team because the python team
periodically applies automated packaging updates to python libraries.
