[Numpy-discussion] immediate fill after empty gives None.

[George N. <gn...@go...>]

Have I done something silly here, or is this a bug?

Opteron 64-bit, r2631 SVN.

In [4]: depths_s2 = empty(shape=(5,),dtype=float)
In [5]: depths_s2.fill(2.e5)
In [6]: depths_s2
Out[6]: array([ 200000.,  200000.,  200000.,  200000.,  200000.])

In [11]: depths_s2 = (empty(shape=(5,),dtype=float)).fill(2.e5)
In [12]: print depths_s2
None
