Description: Loopy lets you easily generate the tedious, complicated code that is necessary
        to get good performance out of GPUs and multi-core CPUs.

        Loopy's core idea is that a computation should be described simply and then
        *transformed* into a version that gets high performance. This transformation
        takes place under user control, from within Python.
        
        It can capture the following types of optimizations:
        
        * Vector and multi-core parallelism in the OpenCL/CUDA model
        * Data layout transformations (structure of arrays to array of structures)
        * Loopy Unrolling
        * Loop tiling with efficient handling of boundary cases
        * Prefetching/copy optimizations
        * Instruction level parallelism
        * and many more
        
        Loopy targets array-type computations, such as the following:
        
        * dense linear algebra,
        * convolutions,
        * n-body interactions,
        * PDE solvers, such as finite element, finite difference, and
          Fast-Multipole-type computations
        
        It is not (and does not want to be) a general-purpose programming language.
        
        Loopy is licensed under the liberal `MIT license
        <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License>`_ and free for commercial, academic,
        and private use. All of Loopy's dependencies can be automatically installed from
        the package index after using::
        
            pip install loo.py
        
        In addition, Loopy is compatible with and enhances
        `pyopencl <http://mathema.tician.de/software/pyopencl>`_.
