From the project page [1]: > PyTables is a package for managing hierarchical datasets and designed to > efficiently and easily cope with extremely large amounts of data. It offers read/write access to hdf5 archives through a hierarchical interface. I am adding it, because pandas depends on tables for hdf5 read/write functionality. Note: The name is a bit of an issue. The project is called pytables, whereas the python module is simply called tables. I chose to name the nix-expression tables for consistency with the source-tarball and the module name.
