Re: [Numpy-discussion] array.tofile() refuses to write into a StringIO

if you want to write to a string, why not use .tostring()?

Because A.tostring() returns the binary data, while I would like the text representation. More precisely, I would like to use A.tofile(sep="\t").

Yes, this is a known shortcoming of .tofile().

Is it worth filing a bug report ? -- O.C.
