[Gnuplot-py-users] Numarray vs numeric

[William B. <bb...@wa...>]

Does gnuplot-py-1.7 only work with Numeric? Are there plans to make it
compatible with numarray?

I use numarray - I just replaced all
import Numeric  => import numarray as Numeric
in the source and it works for me.

I think both Numeric and numarray will be replaced in near future with
numpy, so I would rather have numpy support...

Of course, something like

try:
    import numpy as NumericPackage
except ImportError:
    try:
        import numarray as NumericPackage
    except ImportError:
        try:
            import Numeric as NumericPackage
        except ImportError:
            raise UnholyError, 'numpy, numarray, or Numeric not found.'

would be the best option.
