[Numpy-discussion] convertcode.py

[Chris K. <chr...@er...>]

Hi,

I just  ran convertcode.py on my code  (from the latest svn source   
of numpy) and it looks  like  it just changed the import  statements  to

import numpy.oldnumeric as Numeric

So  it doesn't  look  like it's really helping me move  over to the  
new usage.  Is  there a script  that  will converts code  to use the  
new numpy as  it's intended to be used?

Thanks,
Chris

Not yet.   The transition approach is to use the compatibility layer 
first by running oldnumeric.alter_code1.py and then running 
alter_code2.py which will take you from the compatibility layer to NumPy 
(but alter_code2 is not completed yet).

The description of what these codes do is in the latest version of the 
second chapter of my book (which is part of the preview chapters that 
are available on the web).

Speaking of which, is it possible for us early buyers to get updated copies?
