I ran across several more. missing returns and a little inconsistency with shape being defined as "shape" or "a" a few other things. I just stopped posting them to the list > > Bottom line: if it doesn't start w/ scipy, leave it alone (for now). I had started a simple set of tests for the rand functions to catch problems like the one resulting from the way the enthought distr. was calculating randn(), I was just finishing that and making note of what I say in the docs as I did so. I am moving back to the scipy docs soon.
