I'm working on getting some old code working with numpy and I noticed that bool_ is not a subclass of int. Given that python's bool subclasses into and that the other scalar types are subclasses of their respective counterparts it seems at first glance that numpy.bool_ should subclass python's bool, which in turn subclasses int. Or am I missing something here?
That would certainly be desirable. There might be a technical reason why it's not, but if you can do it, and it seems to work for you, let's check it in. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco
