description: "\n\n<p>\n    rospy is a pure Python client library for ROS. The rospy\
  \ client\n    API enables Python programmers to quickly interface with\n    ROS\
  \ <a href=\"http://ros.org/wiki/Topics\">Topics</a>, <a href=\"http://ros.org/wiki/Services\"\
  >Services</a>,\n    and <a href=\"http://ros.org/wiki/Parameter Server\">Parameters</a>.\
  \ The\n    design of rospy favors implementation speed (i.e. developer time)\n \
  \   over runtime performance so that algorithms can be quickly\n    prototyped and\
  \ tested within ROS. It is also ideal for\n    non-critical-path code, such as configuration\
  \ and initialization\n    code. Many of the ROS tools are written in rospy to take\
  \ advantage\n    of the type introspection capabilities.\n</p>\n<p>\n    Many of\
  \ the ROS tools, such\n    as <a href=\"http://ros.org/wiki/rostopic\">rostopic</a>\n\
  \    and <a href=\"http://ros.org/wiki/rosservice\">rosservice</a>, are\n    built\
  \ on top of rospy.\n</p>\n\n  "
