This release of PyElastica uses the Python package numba to enable just in time compilation leading to a ~8x speedup over the previous version. Numba is not required to run PyElastica and if numba is not installed, PyElastica will defualt to the non-numba implementation. As such, if you wish to take advantage of the speed-up afforded by numba, please be sure to install it separately.

Future releases of PyElastica will require numba and we will no longer be maintaining the non-numba code beyond this release.

We have also included an example script for visualizing PyElastica simulations using POVray. This script is located in the examples folder (examples/visualization).

(This post-release fixes a bug which appears with new version of Numba. In new versions of Numba jitclass is imported from numba.experimental and import path was wrong in PyElastica. Since we are not using jitclass we removed all jitclass import statements from the code base.)
