All,
is there a reason why in some functions (min, max...) optional parameters are
parsed by position instead of by keyword ?
OK, let me give you an example:
#-----------------------------------------------
def amin(a, axis=None, out=None):
try:
amin = a.min
except AttributeError:
return _wrapit(a, 'min', axis, out)
return amin(axis, out)
#-----------------------------------------------
* Why using amin(axis,out) instead of amin(axis=axis,out=out) ?
* Would it be possible to add some optional keywords to amin/amax, so that
a "fill_value" parameter would be recognized by numpy.min when dealing with
masked arrays ? A modified amin would then be like:
def amin(a, axis=None, out=None, **kwargs):
try:
amin = a.min
except AttributeError:
return _wrapit(a, 'min', axis=axis, out=out, **kwargs)
return amin(axis=axis, out=out, **kwargs)
Am I missing something ?
