RE: [Numpy-discussion] Random Numbers

[Karthikesh R. <ka...@ja...>]

Hi Perry and All,

Thankx a lot for your reply. i actually forgot to mention it, but
a = rand(100000) > 0.5
b = rand(100000) > 0.5
sum(float(a,b))

results in a TypeError: Only rank-0 numarray can be cast to floats.

With warm regards
karthik
