SciPy 2.0.0 Release Notes

SciPy 2.0.0 is the culmination of X months of hard work. It contains many new features, numerous bug-fixes, improved test coverage and better documentation. There have been a number of deprecations and API changes in this release, which are documented below. All users are encouraged to upgrade to this release, as there are a large number of bug-fixes and optimizations. Before upgrading, we recommend that users check that their own code does not use deprecated SciPy functionality (to do so, run your code with python -Wd and check for DeprecationWarning s). Our development attention will now shift to bug-fix releases on the 1.18.x branch, and on adding new features on the main branch.

This release requires Python 3.12-3.15 and NumPy 2.0.0 or greater.
