+The h5py package is a Pythonic interface to the HDF5 binary data format.
+
+It lets you store huge amounts of numerical data, and easily manipulate
+that data from NumPy. For example, you can slice into multi-terabyte
+datasets stored on disk as if they were real NumPy arrays. Thousands
+of datasets can be stored in a single file, categorized and tagged
+however you want.
