xhorizon

xhorizon: Explicitly computing Penrose diagrams in general relativity.

A Python package.

Finally gave the package a makeover and updated to Python 3!
The new documentation is still under construction…
but there is now an ever expanding tutorial!
(Check docs version “latest” for updates.)

Requests for info/specific tutorial updates welcomed, send to jcschindler01 at gmail.
