As a result, I have zero experince with hashing of buffers. This observation supports the current consensus to limit hashing to 1d and 0d cases. My only concern is that with hash(m) == hash(m.tobytes()) implementing multidimensional restriction will require artificial if ndim > 1 check and an extra sentence in the docs while not simplifying anything. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15814> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
