Welcome to svmloader's documentation!
=====================================


**svmloader** is a simplist but very fast python module (written in cython) to load 
sparse data written at libsvm format.

It is not functionnaly equivalent to :class:`sklearn.datasets.load_svmlight_file`, 
and handle only the simplest cases.

The `labels` type supported are `int` and `float` (default `int`), and data can be parsed as `numpy.float64` or `numpy.float32` type (`float64` by default).  
Multiple labels currently are not supported.
