This is the ``uncertainties`` Python package, which performs **transparent
calculations with uncertainties** (aka "error propagation"):

    >>> from uncertainties import ufloat
    >>> from uncertainties.umath import *  # sin(), etc.
    >>> x = ufloat(1, 0.1)  # x = 1+/-0.1
    >>> print 2*x
    2.00+/-0.20
    >>> sin(2*x)  # In a Python shell, "print" is optional
    0.9092974268256817+/-0.08322936730942848

This package also automatically calculates derivatives:

    >>> (2*x+1000).derivatives[x]
    2.0

Git branches
------------

The ``release`` branch is the latest stable release. It should pass the tests.


``master*`` branches in the Github repository are bleeding-edge, and do not
necessarily pass the tests. The ``master`` branch is the latest, relatively
stable versions (while other ``master*`` branches are more experimental).

Other branches might be present in the GitHub repository, but they are
typically temporary and represent work in progress that does not necessarily run
properly yet.
