I'm not sure what you mean by "make it the default". The proposal *doesn't* make unrankedness the default -- you have to ask for it. However, it sounds like you *do* want it to be the default, i.e. no rank is assumed unless you explicitly say the type is exact. That would be strange, IMO. Built-in type names such as "int" have a precise meaning to the C compiler, and it's reasonable to assume that if you say "int" in Cython code, it will mean the same thing. I suppose external typedefs could be treated differently in this respect, but that would be somewhat odd as well. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Cython-dev mailing list [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/cython-dev
