Overview
pNbody is a parallelized python module toolbox desinged to manipulate and display
interactively very lage N-body systems.
Its oriented object aproche allows the user to perform complicate manipulation
with only very few commands.
As python is an interpreted language, the user can load an N-body system and explore
it interactively using the python interpreter. pNbody may also being used in
python scripts.
The module also contains graphical facilities desinged to create maps of physical
values of the system, like density maps, temperture maps, velocites maps, etc.
Stereo capabilities are also implemented.
pNbody is not limited by file format. Each user may redefine in a parameter file
how to read its specific format.
Its new parallel (mpi) facilities make it works on computer cluster without being limitted
by memery consumption. It has already been tested with 268 millions of particles.
