Hi Numpy folks,
When working with floats, I prefer to have exact string
representations in doctests and other reference-based testing; I find it
helps a lot to avoid chasing cross-platform differences that are really
about the string conversion rather than about numerical differences.
Since Python 2.6, the, the hex() method on floats has been available and
it gives an exact representation. Is there any way to have Numpy arrays
of floats printed using this representation? If not, would there be
interest in adding that?
On a somewhat related note, is there a table someplace which shows
which versions of Python are supported in each release of Numpy? I
found an FAQ that mentioned 2.4 and 2.5, but since it didn't mention 2.6
or 2.7 (much less 3.1), I assume it's out of date. This relates to the
above since it would be harder to support a new hex printoption for
Pythons before 2.6.
Thanks,
Ken B.
