If it's not going to test anything, I would prefer that it not be part of the tests. Admittedly, that's just my sense of aesthetics, not a technical objection. A technical objection would be that some of the matplotlib functions actually do return something, and we would still have to uglify the examples with the ellipsis stuff. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
