Forpy

Forpy allows you to use Python features in Fortran ("Python in Fortran")

For example: datastructures such as list, dict, tuple and interoperability of arrays using numpy. It allows you to use your own and third-party Python modules.

Furthermore you can write Python (extension) modules in Fortran ("Fortran in Python")

Starting points

Basics
