Numeric user since somewhere near "the beginning" (~1996-7?).
1) Have you transitioned or started to transition to NumPy (i.e. import numpy)?
No. Just dabbling so far.
2) Will you transition within the next 6 months? (if you answered No to #1)
Depends.
3) Please, explain your reason(s) for not making the switch. (if you answered No to #2)
(i) Numpy out-of-the-box build failed on my linux boxes, and I will need to upgrade linux and Windoze simultaneously. (ii) So far, Numeric is still working for me. (iii) Time ... I also have ~200k lines of code to convert. (iv) Like others, I guess I'm waiting for NumPy 1.0 to take a stab.
4) Please provide any suggestions for improving NumPy.
From what I've tried/tested so far on Windoze, Numpy looks awesome. Thanks Travis! And the rest of the development team! (Now, if I could only truly understand and remember all the new indexing options ... esp. a[tuple] vs. a[array] .....)
