Description: Numba
        =====
        
        Numba is an Open Source NumPy-aware optimizing compiler for Python
        sponsored by Continuum Analytics, Inc.  It uses the
        remarkable LLVM compiler infrastructure to compile Python syntax to
        machine code.
        
        It is aware of NumPy arrays as typed memory regions and so can speed-up
        code using NumPy arrays.  Other, less well-typed code will be translated
        to Python C-API calls effectively removing the "interpreter" but not removing
        the dynamic indirection.
        
        Numba is also not a tracing JIT.  It *compiles* your code before it gets
        run either using run-time type information or type information you provide
        in the decorator.
        
        Numba is a mechanism for producing machine code from Python syntax and typed
        data structures such as those that exist in NumPy.
        
        Dependencies
        ============
        
          * llvmlite
          * numpy (version 1.6 or higher)
          * argparse (for pycc in python2.6)
        
        Installing
        =================
        
        The easiest way to install numba and get updates is by using the Anaconda
        Distribution: https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/
        
        ```bash
        $ conda install numba
        ```
        
        If you wanted to compile Numba from source,
        it is recommended to use conda environment to maintain multiple isolated
        development environments.  To create a new environment for Numba development:
        
        ```bash
        $ conda create -p ~/dev/mynumba python numpy llvmlite
        ```
        
        To select the installed version, append "=VERSION" to the package name,
        where, "VERSION" is the version number.  For example:
        
        ```bash
        $ conda create -p ~/dev/mynumba python=2.7 numpy=1.6 llvmlite
        ```
        
        to use Python 2.7 and Numpy 1.6.
        
        **Note**: binary packages for llvmlite are currently available from Numba's
        own binstar account, so you'll have to add it to your channels first:
        
        ```bash
        $ conda config --add channels numba
        ```
        
        Custom Python Environments
        ==========================
        
        If you're not using conda, you will need to build llvmlite yourself:
        
        * Building and installing llvmlite
        
        See https://github.com/numba/llvmlite for the most up-to-date instructions.
        You will need a build of LLVM 3.5.
        
        ```bash
        $ git clone https://github.com/numba/llvmlite
        $ cd llvmlite
        $ python setup.py install
        ```
        
        * Installing Numba
        
        ```bash
        $ git clone https://github.com/numba/numba.git
        $ cd numba
        $ pip install -r requirements.txt
        $ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
        $ python setup.py install
        ```
        
        or simply
        
        ```bash
        $ pip install numba
        ```
        
        If you want to enable CUDA support, you will need CUDA Toolkit 5.5+ (which contains 
        ``libnvvm``). After installing the Toolkit, you might have to specify a few 
        environment variables according to http://numba.pydata.org/numba-doc/dev/CUDASupport.html
