The user interface uses the 69 ``ipython'' interactive shell, which is a simple interactive interface 70 to python. The user does not need to understand python to use this, 71 but certain aspects python affect what the user can do. The current 72 interface is object oriented. In the future, we will build a 73 functional (non object oriented) shell on top of this to ease 74 interactive use. 68 \index{Interface}ASAP is written in C++ and python.
