Building SfePy #3

Closed alcarney closed 7 years ago

This project will make use of the Finite Element Method for solving PDEs. Here is a python package that does this for us, leaving us to just state the problem and the domain etc. However it appears that the package is not available through PyPi and we have to build it ourselves.

The docs, say it supposedly supports Python 3, but the setup.py build step fails by calling Python 2 style print statements. Figure out a way to build this for Python 3, switch to Python 2 or maybe consider looking for alternatives. Either different packages, or even look at using MatLab instead.

After having so much trouble setting this up and what FEM boils down to is a linear system. So while it may involve more upfront work by me I will see how things go without using this for now
