by Sebastian Haase

google search for: numpy browse source points here: http://new.scipy.org/download.html which talks about: svn co http://svn.scipy.org/svn/numpy/trunk numpy the link should probably go here: https://github.com/numpy/numpy as already stated here: http://www.scipy.org/Developer_Zone HTH, Sebastian Haase

what statistical module to use for python?

by Chao YUE

Hi all, I just want to broadly ask what statistical package are you guys using? I mean routine statistical function like linear regression, GLM, ANOVA... etc. I know there is SciKits packages like statsmodels, but are there more general and complete ones? thanks to all, Chao -- *********************************************************************************** Chao YUE Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l'Environnement (LSCE-IPSL) UMR 1572 CEA-CNRS-UVSQ Batiment 712 - Pe 119 91191 GIF Sur YVETTE Cedex Tel: (33) 01 69 08 29 02; Fax:01.69.08.77.16 ************************************************************************************

who owns the data?

by josef.pktd＠gmail.com

just a basic question (since I haven't looked at this in some time) I'm creating a structured array in a function. However, I want to return the array with just a simple dtype uni = uni.view(dt).reshape(-1, ncols) return uni the returned uni has owndata=False. Who owns the data, since the underlying, original array went out of scope? alternatives 1) uni = np.asarray(uni, dt).reshape(-1, ncols) return uni looks obvious but raises exception 2) uni.dtype = dt uni.reshape(-1, ncols) return uni this works and uni owns the data. I'm only worried whether assigning to dtype directly is not a dangerous thing to do. >>> u array([0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1]) >>> u.dtype = np.dtype("float") >>> u array([ 0.00000000e+000, 2.12199579e-314, 4.94065646e-324, 2.12199579e-314]) adding a safety check: for t in uni.dtype.fields.values(): assert (t[0] == dt) maybe I shouldn't care if nobody owns the data. Thanks, Josef

Reading automatically all the parameters from a file

by Giovanni Plantageneto

Dear all, I have a simple question. I would like to have all the parameters of a model written in a configuration file (text), and I would like to have all the parameters in the file automatically defined inside a program. I find ConfigParser a bit low level, is there any function that automatically reads everything from a file? Thanks.

dtype

by Mads Ipsen

Hi, Where can I find a complete and exhaustive description of the dtype syntax and arguments. For example, something like a = arange(4, dtype='=H') seems hard to extract from the documentation that I can find on the web and the numpy docstrings.

recarray field access: cannot call setfield on an object array

by Christoph Gohle

Hi, I have a problem with recarray field access using attributes: Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601] Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. C:\Users\labuser>python Python 2.6.6 (r266:84297, Aug 24 2010, 18:46:32) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from numpy import * >>> a = recarray(5,formats = ['i4','f8','O'],names = ['a','b','c']) >>> a.a = 5 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\numpy\core\records.py", line 454, in __set attr__ return self.setfield(val, *res) RuntimeError: cannot call setfield on an object array This is on numpy version 1.6.0 from the pythonxy distribution on windows 7. Access using a['a'] works as expected. What am I doing wrong? Cheers, Christoph

numpy.savetxt for complex arrays

by Paul Anton Letnes

Hello numpy fans, a patch and pull request for ticket 1573 has been posted, giving numpy.savetxt the possibility to save complex arrays to text files. Formatting of the output is supported roughly along the same lines as for real numbers. https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/172 Share, test, discuss, and enjoy! Cheers Paul.
