+NumPy code.  It can handle a large subset of Python's features, including loops,
+ifs, recursion and closures, and it can even take derivatives of derivatives
+of derivatives.  It supports reverse-mode differentiation
+(a.k.a. backpropagation), which means it can efficiently take gradients of
+scalar-valued functions with respect to array-valued arguments, as well as
+forward-mode differentiation, and the two can be composed arbitrarily.  The
+main intended application of Autograd is gradient-based optimization.")
