I've been able to use the standard Python modules from IronPython, but I haven't gotten SciPy to work yet. Has anyone been able to use SciPy from IronPython? What did you have to do to make it work?
Update: See Numerical computing in IronPython with Ironclad
Update: Microsoft is partnering with Enthought to make SciPy for .NET.

IronPython is an open-source implementation of the Python programming language which is tightly integrated with . NET. IronPython can use . NET and Python libraries, and other .
This means NumPy library is not supported by IronPython.
IronPython works as an extension to the . NET Framework, but it can also be used by . NET projects to take advantage of Python's scripting power. Other than that, since IronPython is a real implementation of Python itself, there's no need to learn a new language or extra features if you already know Python.
Some of my workmates are working on Ironclad, a project that will make extension modules for CPython work in IronPython. It's still in development, but parts of numpy, scipy and some other modules already work. You should try it out to see whether the parts of scipy you need are supported.
It's an open-source project, so if you're interested you could even help. In any case, some feedback about what you're trying to do and what parts we should look at next is helpful too.
