series and contains some new features and various bug fixes.

New features

- When used in a notebook environment, the `ipympl` backend for matplotlib is now enabled if installed. This allows use in JupyterLab (as opposed to classic notebook). If `ipympl` is not installed, fallback is to the standard `nbAgg`, which is part of matplotlib.
- Simulation results (`mod.sim` object) can now be returned as a pandas DataFrame if pandas is installed, otherwise a numpy recarray is returned as before. This option is configurable with `custom_datatype = pandas` in the user and system configuration files (see https://pyscesdocs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/userguide_doc.html#configuration), and can be enabled or disabled per session or per model:
python
pysces.enablePandas()
pysces.enablePandas(False)
mod.enableDataPandas()
mod.enableDataPandas(False)


Bug fixes

- Fixed a bug in simulations with `RateRules` using Assimulo, where a wrong solver variable was being assigned internally.
- Fixed SBML export when assignment rules were evaluating reaction rates.
- Enabled assignment rules (forcing functions) to track parameter changes when using CVODE. This is needed in case events change parameters during the course of the simulation.

PySCeS release 1.1.0 (Apr 2023)

We are pleased to announce a new minor release (version 1.1.0) of the Python
Simulator for Cellular Systems: PySCeS (https://pysces.github.io/). This is the
first release in the 1.1 series.

What's new?

The most significant new feature in Version 1.1 is a major upgrade in the way
**PySCeS handles events in simulations**. The definition of events follows the
framework described in the SBML Level 3 Version 2 specification, thus making the
event handling SBML-compliant. Specifically, event **persistence** (for events with
a delay) is now handled correctly, and simultaneous events can be executed
according to their assigned **priorities**.

The new **event specification** in the PySCeS input file reads:

Event: <name>, <trigger>, <optional_kwargs> { <assignments> }


To achieve this, three new optional keyword arguments have been added as a
comma-separated list to the event specification. The general syntax for these
arguments is `<attribute>=<value>`. The keywords are:

- *delay* (float): specifies a delay between when the trigger is fired (and the
assignments are evaluated) and the eventual assignment to the model. If this
keyword is not specified, a value of `0.0` is assumed.
- *priority* (integer or None): specifies a priority for events that trigger at the
same simulation time. Events with a higher priority are executed before those
with a lower priority, while events without a priority (`None`) are executed in
random positions in the sequence. If this keyword is not specified, a value of
`None` is assumed.
- *persistent* (boolean): is only relevant to events with a delay, where the
situation may occur that the trigger condition no longer holds by the time the
delay in the simulation has passed. The persistent attribute specifies how to
deal with this situation: if `True`, the event executes nevertheless; if `False`,
the event does not execute if the trigger condition is no longer valid. If the
keyword is not specified, a default of `True` is assumed.

The following event illustrates the use of a delay of ten time units with a
non-persistent trigger and a priority of 3:

Event: event2, geq(_TIME_, 15.0), delay=10.0, persistent=False, priority=3 {
V3 = V3*vfact2
}

The legacy event syntax is still supported.

Other changes

- A new setting has been added to the settings dictionary of the `PysMod` class
with the following default:
`mod.__settings__["cvode_access_solver"] = True`
This specifies if the Assimulo solver object is available from within the
`PysMod` instance to make low-level changes to the integration algorithm. The
current default emulates previous behaviour, but the setting can be changed to
`False`, which facilitates serialization of the `PysMod` class in e.g. parallel
computations. Previously, the attached Assimulo solver object would prevent
serialization. Thanks c-barry
- Documentation has been updated to reflect the changes to the event syntax.
- Various bug fixes, including dealing with deprecations for Numpy 1.24.x
compatibility.

PySCeS release 1.0.3 (Sep 2022)

We are pleased to announce the release of the Python Simulator for Cellular
Systems: PySCeS (https://pysces.github.io/) version 1.0.3. This is the third
release in the 1.0 series.

What's new?
- The build-system has been adapted to make use of `scikit-build`. This gets rid of
the `distutils` and `numpy.distutils` dependencies, which are deprecated and will
be removed with the release of Python 3.12.

Bug Fixes:
- Fixed CVODE defaults and set default tolerances to more sane levels
- Fixed string replacement in parsing and construction of `PieceWise` functions

PySCeS release 0.9.8 (May 2020)

We are pleased to announce the release of the Python Simulator for Cellular Systems:

0.9.8

**What's new in this release:**

* The main change from a user perspective is that the default model directory and output
directory on Windows have moved to `%USERPROFILE%\Pysces` and subfolders
(e.g. `C:\Users\<username>\Pysces`). These folders are created by default on a fresh
install. The previous default location was `C:\Pysces`. This change brings the Windows
version in line with the Linux and macOS versions, and moreover allows multiple users
to maintain their individual PySCeS configurations and model files on the same Windows
machine.

* If you are **upgrading** from a previous version: For backward compatibility, the
original location is searched first, and used if found upon startup, so that existing
installations should continue to function as previously.

* Users wishing to **migrate** the PySCeS directory to the new location without losing
any work should move the folder `C:\Pysces` to `C:\Users\<username>\Pysces`, and then
edit the `model_dir` and `output_dir` keys in the configuration
file `C:\Users\<username>\Pysces\.pys_usercfg.ini` to reflect the new paths.

* Numerous bug fixes relating to Python 3 compatibility.

* Other bug fixes.

PySCeS has its own project on the Anaconda cloud: https://anaconda.org/pysces

Install the latest version from the new site (Python 3.6 - 3.8) using:

bash
