[Numpy-discussion] New DTypes: Are scalars a central concept in NumPy or not?

2020-02-21 Thread Sebastian Berg
Hi all, When we create new datatypes, we have the option to make new choices for the new datatypes [0] (not the existing ones). The question is: Should every NumPy datatype have a scalar associated and should operations like indexing return a scalar or a 0-D array? This is in my opinion a comple

I personally have always found it weird and annoying to deal with 0-D arrays, so +1 for scalars!* Juan *: admittedly, I have almost no grasp of the underlying NumPy implementation complexities, but I will happily take Sebastian's word that scalars can be consistent with the library. On Fri, 2
