    Yeah look that was the front page of the repo talking about how it has C/C++ and Fortran code, sorry for not reading the docs and finding out that yes they still use C/C++ and Fortran code in the form of OpenBLAS which is a dependency… f2py is just a method of doing the following:

    F2PY facilitates creating/building native Python C/API extension modules that make it possible

    • to call Fortran 77/90/95 external subroutines and >Fortran 90/95 module subroutines as well as C functions;

    • to access Fortran 77 COMMON blocks and Fortran 90/95 module data, including allocatable arrays

    from Python.

    Correct me if I’m wrong here but if you’re implementing an api for one programming language to talk to another then that means you have 2 programm-

    I wake up as a lizard. The meaning of kernels, subroutines and programming languages is already fading. I realise the rock I am lying on is slightly in a shadow and move into the sun. Might eat a bug later…
