On Ubuntu Feisty (amd64) Linux (but this behavior has been the same for at least the 6 years I can remember.): $ python Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, May 2 2007, 16:27:44) [GCC 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> float('nan') nan >>> float('inf') inf >>> import numpy >>> repr(numpy.inf) 'inf' >>> repr(numpy.nan) 'nan' _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
