Description: # WellRadPy
        
        WellRadPy ("Well Radius Python") is a Python package for calculating the radius
        of influence and radius of investigation of pumping wells. These quantities
        frequently need to be estimated in well hydraulics and aquifer testing (also
        called well testing in petroleum engineering). In particular, calculating the
        radius of investigation is critical for the design and the interpretation of
        pumping tests. This package implements solutions for both drawdown and recovery
        phases of pumping tests.
        
        Note that radius of influence and radius of investigation are different
        concepts. Furthermore, there are various ways by which each radius may be
        precisely defined. This package implements most definitions.

        ## Usage
        
        WellRadPy is simple and its use is straightforward. The ``/examples`` directory
        in the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/etiennebresciani/wellradpy)
        contains scripts where the functions for calculating radius of influence and
        radius of investigation are exemplified.
        
        Help can also be obtained by typing ``help(function_path)`` in the Python
        console.
        
        ## Installation
        
        ### For simple use
        
        1. From the command line, type ``pip install wellradpy``. This will download
        the latest release of the package from the PyPI repository and install it.
        
        ### For development
        
        1. Clone (or download) the sources from the
        [GitHub repository](https://github.com/etiennebresciani/wellradpy).
        2. From the project directory, type ``pip install -e .``.
        This will install the current directory, so that you can both modify the
        package and use it at the same time.
        
        ### Dependencies
        
        WellRadPy depends on the Python packages NumPy and SciPy (>= 1.2.0). These
        will be automatically installed with any of the above installation methods.
