SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps modernize outdated Python 2 scientific computing code, migrating it to Python 3 and updating to current libraries.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Python 2 to 3 Conversion: Handles syntax changes like print statements and exception handling.
  • Library Modernization: Replaces deprecated libraries (e.g., ConfigParser, cPickle) with modern equivalents (e.g., configparser, pickle).
  • Use Case: You have a critical data analysis script written in Python 2 that relies on old libraries. This Skill will guide you through converting it to a robust Python 3 script using NumPy, pandas, and SciPy.

Quick Start

Use the modernize-scientific-stack skill to convert the provided Python 2 script to Python 3.
