i just wanted to point out another possible choice: * enable numpy.rand((3,3)) and make numpy.rand(3,3) raise an error as zeros and ones do. I suppose that you all discussed a lot about this choice also, but it still seems very reasonable to me :-( pau ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
