Well, your example Python code works for me without any other changes, and it shows behavior identical to the C code. Things might depend on the version of the C library and the kernel, so it is quite possible that many do not see these issues. -- Pauli Virtanen _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list [email protected] http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
