[Numpy-discussion] dtyping with .astype()

[Numpy-discussion] Example Usage of Neighborhood Iterator in Cython

2011-10-17 Thread T J
I recently put together a Cython example which uses the neighborhood iterator. It was trickier than I thought it would be, so I thought to share it with the community. The function takes a 1-dimensional array and returns a 2-dimensional array of neighborhoods in the original area. This is
