: numpy, it seems that logadd or logaddexp is probably a more fitting name. So long as it is documented, I doubt it matters much though...
Please don't call it logadd. `logaddexp` or `logsumexp` are both fine, but the `exp` part is essential in emphasising that you are not calculating a+b using logs.
I'm inclined to go with logaddexp and add logsumexp as an alias for logaddexp.reduce. But I'll wait until tomorrow to see if there are more comments. Chuck
