Not on a normal import it's not. >>> import numpy >>> import sys >>> sys.modules['inspect'] Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> KeyError: 'inspect' You should feel free to remove whatever parts of `_inspect` are not being used and to move the parts that are closer to where they are used if you feel compelled to. Please do not replace the current uses of `_inspect` with `inspect`. -- Robert Kern _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
