Say, you create an array['i'] for signed integers (which take a minimum 2 bytes). A calculation results in an integer that is larger than the range of an 'i'. Normally, Python will convert an 'i' to a 4-byte 'l' integer. But, does the same apply for an array ie. does Python dynamically adjust from array['i'] to array['l'']?
Before anyone suggests it, I would be using Numpy for arrays but there isn't a 64-bit version available under Windows that works. Dinesh
