        This is a Python wrapper around Naoaki Okazaki (chokkan)'s liblbfgs_ library
        of quasi-Newton optimization routines (limited memory BFGS and OWL-QN).
        
        This package aims to provide a cleaner interface to the LBFGS
        algorithm than is currently available in SciPy_, and to provide the
        OWL-QN algorithm to Python users.
