Re: [Pytables-users] Indexing Arrays: a la numarray

[travlr <vel...@gm...>]

Here is the diff patch for pytables-1.1.1

The utility is the same as what I provided above for 1.0 and 1.1, but
I've also included  using either of the following object types:

Numarray array
Numeric array
List
Tuple

...(to be used as described in my prior post).

I tried once again (unsuccessfully) to enable pytables.Array[key]
functionality (as well as attempting to enable Table/Column/Array[key]
setting functionality) for non-sequential index-array [keys].


BTW... Numeric question if someone knows..

Python 2.4.1 (#1, Jul 29 2005, 03:50:01)=20
[GCC 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> import Numeric=20
>>> arr =3D Numeric.array([1,2,3,4,5])
>>> type(arr)
<type 'array'>

>>> isinstance(arr, array)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in ?
NameError: name 'array' is not defined

>>> isinstance(arr, type(Numeric.array([])))
True

Why is type(arr) reported as 'array', and yet isinstance() doesn't recogniz=
e it?
