Abstract :
The Numeric Python EM project started out as a conversion of ToyFDTD to Numeric Python (a fast vector oriented module for the Python programming language). Surprisingly, the simulation ran almost as fast as the original C-language version. Since Python is an interpreted language, the simulation conditions can easily be altered and run immediately. This makes Numeric Python an ideal prototyping language for EM simulators.
