PHCpy is the latest development of phcpy.

Ctypes allows to import dynamically linked libraries into a Python session.

For the Python scripts to work, the file libPHCpack,
for the proper platform (extension .so, .dylib, or .dll) must be present
in the phcpy folder.

The directed acyclic graph shows the dependencies of
the first seven modules:

At the root is the version module.  If version.py works,
then the interfacing with libPHCpack works.
Four other modules are needed for the blackbox solver.

To install, type
pip install .
