IPhreeqcPy¶
IPhreeqcPy provides a wrapper to communicate with IPhreeqc in python. It is an alternative to PhreeqPy and is derived from PhreeqPy. One of the drawback of PhreeqPy was that it used pythonic names spaces for IPhreeqc function calls which made PhreeqPy function calls different from IPhreeqc. Secondly it did not have automated compilation for Iphreeqc during installation. As PhreeqPy is an open source I took further liberty to address this issue and redistribute it as IPhreeqcPy to avoid conflicts with development of PhreeqPy. Moreover more Iphreeqc function calls are included in IPhreeqcPy e.g. function calls related to dump which can be of use while restarting simulations.
