[Numpy-discussion] testing Numeric.array([0])

[Rick R. <ri...@bi...>]

Should Numeric.array([0]) test false?  This seems counterintuitive, and
is not the case for the regular python array module.

This recently caused a subtle bug for me when I wanted to find the
indices of an array that met a condition.  If only the first element met
the condition, the result was array([0]) -- a non-empty result that
evaluated false.

If this is the intended behavior, can someone tell me the reason?

thanks,
Rick
