Hi,
I am using numpy version 1.9.0 and Python 2.7.9 and have a question
about the dtype:
In [14]: np.dtype("<f8")
Out[14]: dtype('float64')
In [15]: np.dtype(u"<f8")
Out[15]: dtype('float64')
In [16]: np.dtype([("<f8", "<f8")])
Out[16]: dtype([('<f8', '<f8')])
So far so good. Now what happens if I use unicode?
In [17]: np.dtype([(u"<f8", "<f8")])
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError Traceback (most recent call
last)
<ipython-input-17-ce004acab7f5> in <module>()
----> 1 np.dtype([(u"<f8", "<f8")])
TypeError: data type not understood
Also, it really does need to be a tuple?
In [18]: np.dtype([["<f8", "<f8"]])
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError Traceback (most recent call
last)
<ipython-input-18-c82761d7306d> in <module>()
----> 1 np.dtype([["<f8", "<f8"]])
TypeError: data type not understood
Is this expected behaviour or should I file a bug-report/submit a
pull-request?
best,
V-
