[Numpy-discussion] ANN: numexpr 2.4 RC1

2014-04-06 Thread Francesc Alted
=== Announcing Numexpr 2.4 RC1 === Numexpr is a fast numerical expression evaluator for NumPy. With it, expressions that operate on arrays (like "3*a+4*b") are accelerated and use less memory than doing the same calculation in Python. It wears mu

[Numpy-discussion] numpy git master requiring cython for build

2014-04-06 Thread Julian Taylor
hi, numpy.random is largely built from a cython file. Up to know numpy git included generated c sources for this one file. It is troublesome to have merge 20k line changes for one line bugfixes, so it is proposed to remove the generated sources from the master branch in this PR: https://github.com/

[Numpy-discussion] match RNG numbers with R?

2014-04-06 Thread Yaroslav Halchenko
Hi NumPy gurus, We wanted to test some of our code by comparing to results of R implementation which provides bootstrapped results. R, Python std library, numpy all have Mersenne Twister RNG implementation. But all of them generate different numbers. This issue was previously discussed in https
