mixed mode arithmetic
by Neal Becker July 11, 2023

July 11, 2023

I've been browsing the numpy source. I'm wondering about mixed-mode arithmetic on arrays. I believe the way numpy handles this is that it never does mixed arithmetic, but instead converts arrays to a common type. Arguably, that might be efficient for a mix of say, double and float. Maybe not. But for a mix of complex and a scalar type (say, CDouble * Double), it's clearly suboptimal in efficiency. So, do I understand this correctly? If so, is that something we should improve?

Invalid value encoutered : how to prevent numpy.where to do this?
by Eric Emsellem Feb. 18, 2023

Feb. 18, 2023

Dear all, I have a code using lots of "numpy.where" to make some constrained calculations as in: data = arange(10) result = np.where(data == 0, 0., 1./data) # or data1 = arange(10) data2 = arange(10)+1.0 result = np.where(data1 > data2, np.sqrt(data1-data2), np.sqrt(data2-data2)) which then produces warnings like: /usr/bin/ipython:1: RuntimeWarning: invalid value encountered in sqrt or for the first example: /usr/bin/ipython:1: RuntimeWarning: divide by zero encountered in divide How … [View More]

I've posted this before, but I finally got it cleaned up for the Cookbook. For this purpose I use a subclass of file that has methods for reading unformatted Fortran data. See http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/FortranIO/FortranFile. I'd gladly see this in numpy or scipy somewhere, but I'm not sure where it belongs. > program … [View More]makeArray > implicit none > integer,parameter:: nx=10,ny=20 > real(4),dimension(nx,ny):: ux,uy,p > integer :: i,j > open(11,file='uxuyp.bin',form='unformatted') > do i = 1,nx > do j = 1,ny > ux(i,j) = real(i*j) > uy(i,j) = real(i)/real(j) > p (i,j) = real(i) + real(j) > enddo > enddo > write(11) ux,uy > write(11) p > close(11) > end program makeArray When I run the above program compiled with gfortran on my Intel Mac, I can read it back with:: >>> import numpy as np >>> from fortranfile import FortranFile >>> f=FortranFile('uxuyp.bin', endian='<') >>> uxuy = f.readReals(prec='f') #

Adding fweights and aweights to numpy.corrcoef

Hello, Would it be possible to add the fweights and aweights keyword arguments from np.cov to np.corrcoef? They would retain their meaning from np.cov as frequency- or importance-based weightings respectively. Yours, Corin Hoad

Extending ufunc signature syntax for matmul, frozen dimensions
by Matti Picus May 2, 2018

May 2, 2018

In looking to solve issue #9028 "no way to override matmul/@ if __array_ufunc__ is set", it seems there is consensus around the idea of making matmul a true gufunc, but matmul can behave differently for different combinations of array and vector: (n,k),(k,m)->(n,m) (n,k),(k) -> (n) (k),(k,m)->(m) Currently there is no way to express that in the ufunc signature. The proposed solution to issue #9029 is to extend the meaning of a signature so "syntax like (n?,k),(k,m?)->(n?,m?) … [View More]

axis and keepdims arguments for generalized ufuncs
by Marten van Kerkwijk April 30, 2018

April 30, 2018

Hi All, When introducing the ``axes`` argument for generalized ufuncs, the plan was to eventually also add ``axis`` and ``keepdims`` for reduction-like gufuncs. I have now attempted to do so in https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/11018 It is not completely feature-compatible with reductions in that one cannot (yet) pass in a tuple or None to ``axis``. Comments most welcome. All the best, Marten
