============
Music Theory
============

"Music Theory" (**musictheory**) is a package designed to investigate the 
question "Which chords go with which scales?" A couple of years ago, 
the author was very interested and obsessed in the question, and decided
to put his Python skills to the task. Along the way, the **musictheory** 
package was redesigned to be more flexible and extendible. 

The package has roughly the same philosophy as `Music Set Theory 
<http://www.jaytomlin.com/music/settheory/help.html>`_ but uses different
terminology.

Documentation
-------------

The best thing to do is look at the source code. It contains an *excess*
of documentation strings. Hopefully it makes things clearer.

Installation
------------

You can get the application from PyPI through the command::

    pip install musictheory

Testing
-------

Testing can be performed by executing the following code in the setup directory:

    python -m test.test_all

License
-------

The software has been released using a 3 clause Berkeley Software 
Distribution (BSD) license. See LICENSE.txt for more information.
