Probably no reason, it should be fixed. > What's the status on np.testing.assert_approx_equal, I would have liked > to use it more often, except it doesn't work on arrays. It's probably going to stay as well. The test routines have a common framework for working with arrays, but maybe that routine dates from way back, and wasn't ported to use it. Both the assert_approx_equal and assert_almost_equal also have the built-in ugliness of specifying precision via decimals= which is somewhat clumsy for numerical work. -- Pauli Virtanen _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
