psipi -- a cute transliteration of "SciPy" into mathy Greek letters (could use symbols in print...)

muscle --- Multidimensional-arrays Uniting for Scientific and Computational Library Enhancement
Definitions
Distribution name: the name of the distribution. Used to distribute the package. Currently scipy_core.
Package name: the name of the Python package. Conventionally, this is the same as the distribution name, although it is currently not so. Currently, this is "scipy" (which is a "namespace package", meaning it shares the "scipy" namespace with full scipy).
Module names: names of modules within the package. Currently, the primary array functionality used directly from the "scipy" namespace.
