I use Numeric 20.0.0, Python 2.1, and RedHat 7.1 on a PC.
Here is a small Python program:
import Numeric
a = Numeric.zeros((2,2), 'b')
print a[0,0], type(a[0,0])
print a[0][0], type(a[0][0])
a = Numeric.zeros((2,2), 'i')
print a[0,0], type(a[0,0])
print a[0][0], type(a[0][0])
a = Numeric.zeros((2,2), 'f')
print a[0,0], type(a[0,0])
print a[0][0], type(a[0][0])
The output is:
0 <type 'array'>
0 <type 'int'>
0 <type 'array'>
0 <type 'int'>
0.0 <type 'array'>
0.0 <type 'float'>
This can't be correct. "a[0,0]" and "a[0][0]" should have the same type. A quick
check of my old Python code shows that this
problem may have appeared since Numeric version 17.
Thanks,
