Hi, it was originally used in other functions of arraysetops (culprit yours truly) which used to use the padding functionality. Nowadays the only use I can see git-grepping the numpy sources is in the tests, so +1 for deprecating. Cheers, r. On 08/27/2018 07:28 PM, Tyler Reddy wrote:
Chuck suggested ( https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/11805#issuecomment-416069436 ) that we may want to consider deprecating np.ediff1d, which is perhaps not much more useful than np.diff, apart from having some arguably strange prepend / append behavior added in.

Thoughts?
Best wishes, Tyler
