Hi,
I'm pleased to announce the availability of the first beta release of NumPy 1.7.0b1.
Sources and binary installers can be found at https://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.7.0b1/
Please test this release and report any issues on the numpy-discussion mailing list. The following problems are known and we'll work on fixing them before the final release:
http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2187 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2185 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2066 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1588 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2076 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2101 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2108 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2150 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/2189
I would like to thank Ralf for a lot of help with creating binaries and other help for this release.
Cheers, Ondrej
Hi Ondrej,
will numpy 1.7.0 final support Python 3.3? The recent patch in the master branch seems to work well.
I tested a win-amd64-py2.7\msvc9\MKL build of the numpy maintenance/1.7.x branch against a number of package binaries from <http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/>.
The test results are at < http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/tests/20120821-win-amd64-py2.7-num...
. For comparison, the tests against numpy-MKL-1.6.2 are at <http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/tests/20120821-win-amd64-py2.7/ .
Besides some numpy 1.7.x test errors due to RuntimeWarning and DeprecationWarning, there are hundreds of "RuntimeWarning (numpy.dtype size changed, may indicate binary incompatibility)" when loading Cython extensions.
There are additional test failures in scipy, statsmodels, bottleneck, skimage, vigra, and mahotas. I did not check in detail or with existing tickets (http://projects.scipy.org/ is timing out or responding with HTTP 500 status).
Most (all?) of the statsmodels issues are due to structured / record array view changes discussed in the thread "view of recarray issue." I.e., rec_array.view((float, 3)) no longer works, though I thought this was fixed.
Other packages test OK against numpy 1.7.x, e.g. PIL, PyGame, matplotlib, Pandas, tables, and numexpr.
Hope it helps.
Christoph
