Python API for SALOME %Mesh module defines several classes that can
be used for easy mesh creation and edition.

Documentation for SALOME %Mesh module Python API is available in two forms:
- <a href="smeshpy_doc/modules.html">Structured documentation</a>, where all methods and
classes are grouped by their functionality, like it is done in the GUI documentation
- <a href="smeshpy_doc/namespaces.html">Linear documentation</a> grouped only by classes, declared
in the \ref smesh and StdMeshersDC Python packages.

Python package \ref smesh provides an interface to create and handle
meshes. It can be used to create an empty mesh or to import mesh from the data file.

As soon as mesh is created, it is possible to manage it via its own
methods, described in \ref smesh.Mesh "class Mesh" documentation.

Class \ref smesh.Mesh "Mesh" allows assigning algorithms to a mesh.
Please note that some algorithms, included in the standard SALOME
distribution are always available. Python package \ref StdMeshersDC
provides an interface for standard meshing algorithms included into
the SALOME %Mesh module distribution, like:
- REGULAR (1D)
- COMPOSITE (1D)
- MEFISTO (2D)
- Quadrangle (2D)
- Hexa(3D)
- etc ...

To add meshing hypotheses, it is possible to use the functions provided by the
algorithms interfaces.

An example below demonstrates usage of the Python API for 3d mesh generation.
