class Field:
    """
    With fields one can formulate stencil-like update rules on structured grids.
    This Field class knows about the dimension, memory layout (strides) and optionally about the size of an array.

    Creating Fields:
        The preferred method to create fields is the `fields` function.
        Alternatively one can use one of the static functions `Field.create_generic`, `Field.create_from_numpy_array`
        and `Field.create_fixed_size`. Don't instantiate the Field directly!
        Fields can be created with known or unknown shapes:

        1. If you want to create a kernel with fixed loop sizes i.e. the shape of the array is already known.
           This is usually the case if just-in-time compilation directly from Python is done.
           (see `Field.create_from_numpy_array`
        2. create a more general kernel that works for variable array sizes. This can be used to create kernels
           beforehand for a library. (see `Field.create_generic`)

    Dimensions and Indexing:
        A field has spatial and index dimensions, where the spatial dimensions come first.
        The interpretation is that the field has multiple cells in (usually) two or three dimensional space which are
        looped over. Additionally N values are stored per cell. In this case spatial_dimensions is two or three,
        and index_dimensions equals N. If you want to store a matrix on each point in a two dimensional grid, there
        are four dimensions, two spatial and two index dimensions: ``len(arr.shape) == spatial_dims + index_dims``

        The shape of the index dimension does not have to be specified. Just use the 'index_dimensions' parameter.
        However, it is good practice to define the shape, since out of bounds accesses can be directly detected in this
        case. The shape can be passed with the 'index_shape' parameter of the field creation functions.

        When accessing (indexing) a field the result is a `Field.Access` which is derived from sympy Symbol.
        First specify the spatial offsets in [], then in case index_dimension>0 the indices in ()
        e.g. ``f[-1,0,0](7)``

    Example using no index dimensions:
        >>> a = np.zeros([10, 10])
        >>> f = Field.create_from_numpy_array("f", a, index_dimensions=0)
        >>> jacobi = (f[-1,0] + f[1,0] + f[0,-1] + f[0,1]) / 4

    Examples for index dimensions to create LB field and implement stream pull:
        >>> from pystencils import Assignment
        >>> stencil = np.array([[0,0], [0,1], [0,-1]])
        >>> src, dst = fields("src(3), dst(3) : double[2D]")
        >>> assignments = [Assignment(dst[0,0](i), src[-offset](i)) for i, offset in enumerate(stencil)];
