It is my understanding that Numpy accelerates array operations with BLAS where possible, but BLAS does not support all the dtypes that Numpy does. How does Numpy model non-float arrays like arrays of dtype=bool or dtype=object?

Numpy only uses BLAS where it can. Where it cannot it doesn't use BLAS. Is there a particular operation you are interested in? Matti
