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]

Re: [Numpy-discussion] example reading binary Fortran file

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') #

Problem with libgfortran installed with pip install numpy
by David Grote Nov. 12, 2018

Nov. 12, 2018

Hi - I have recently come across this problem. On my mac, I build a Fortran code, producing a shared object, that I import into Python along with numpy. This had been working fine until recently when I started seeing sag faults deep inside the Fortran code, usually in Fortran print statements. I tracked this down to a gfortran version issue. I use the brew installation of Python and gcc (using the most recent version, 8.2.0). gcc of course installs a version of libgfortran.dylib. Doing a lsof … [View More]

PR Cleanup
by Charles R Harris Sept. 27, 2018

Sept. 27, 2018

Hi All, As usual, the top of the PR stack is getting all the attention. As a start on cleaning up the old PRs, I'd like to suggest that all the maintainers look at their (long) pending PRs and decide which they want to keep, close those they don't want to pursue, and rebase the others. Might also help if they would post here the PRs that they think we should finish up. Chuck

Proposal to accept NEP-18, __array_function__ protocol
by Stephan Hoyer Sept. 26, 2018

Sept. 26, 2018

I propose to accept NEP-18, "A dispatch mechanism for NumPy’s high level array functions": http://www.numpy.org/neps/nep-0018-array-function-protocol.html Since the last round of discussion, we added a new section on "Callable objects generated at runtime" clarifying that to handle such objects is out of scope for the initial proposal in the NEP. If there are no substantive objections within 7 days from this email, then the NEP will be accepted; see NEP 0 for more details. Cheers, Stpehan

Hi All, On behalf of the NumPy team, I am pleased to announce the release of NumPy 1.14.6. This is a bug fix release for bugs and regressions reported following the 1.14.5 release. The significant fixes are: - Fix for behavior change in ``ma.masked_values(shrink=True)`` - Fix the new cached allocations machinery to be thread safe. The Python versions supported by this release are 2.7, 3.4-3.7. The wheels are linked with OpenBLAS v0.3.0, which should fix some of the linalg problems … [View More]

rescuing missing data documents
