Below is the code to/from Boolean arrays and Unsigned integers.  On my
Pentium 4, functions such as "bitwise_and" are 32 times faster when run
on 32-bit integers instead of the entire-byte-consuming-Boolean.

Good luck all:-)

uint32Mask =
numarray.array([0x00000001,0x00000002,0x00000004,0x00000008, \

0x00000010,0x00000020,0x00000040,0x00000080, \

0x00000100,0x00000200,0x00000400,0x00000800, \

0x00001000,0x00002000,0x00004000,0x00008000, \

0x00010000,0x00020000,0x00040000,0x00080000, \

0x00100000,0x00200000,0x00400000,0x00800000, \

0x01000000,0x02000000,0x04000000,0x08000000, \

0x10000000,0x20000000,0x40000000,0x80000000], numarray.UInt32)
uint32MaskInner = numarray.copy.deepcopy(uint32Mask)
uint32MaskInner.shape = [32,1]
uint32MaskOuter = numarray.copy.deepcopy(uint32Mask)
uint32MaskOuter.shape = [1,32]

def BoolToUInt32(myArr):
    if myArr.size()%32 != 0:
        print "Size is: ", myArr.size()
    return
numarray.matrixmultiply(numarray.reshape(myArr,[myArr.size()/32,32]),uint32MaskInner).flat

def UInt32ToBool(myArr,destination=None):
    if destination == None:
        destination = numarray.zeros([myArr.size()*32],numarray.Bool)
        #return
numarray.bitwise_and(numarray.reshape(myArr,[myArr.size(),1]),uint32MaskOuter).flat
    #else:
    destination.shape = [myArr.size(),32]

numarray.bitwise_and(numarray.reshape(myArr,[myArr.size(),1]),uint32MaskOuter,destination)
    destination.shape = [destination.size()]
    return destination





Test of code:
>>> import numarray
>>> gram.UInt32ToBool(ni)
array([1, 0, 0, ..., 0, 0, 0], type=Bool)
>>> numarray.all(numarray.equal(n,gram.UInt32ToBool(gram.BoolToUInt32(n))))
1
>>> n
array([1, 0, 0, ..., 0, 0, 0], type=Bool)
>>> n.shape
(1024,)
>>> numarray.all(numarray.equal(n,gram.UInt32ToBool(gram.BoolToUInt32(n))))
1
