Maybe announcing that numpy will drop support for matrices in a future version (3.0, ...) would save a lot of pain in the long run.
Or make them better. There was a pretty good discussion of this a while back on this list. We all had a lot of opinions, and there were some good ideas in that thread. However, no none stepped up to implement any of it. I think the reason is that none of the core numpy developers use them/want them. In fact, many of those contributing to the discussion (myself included), didn't think it likely that they'd use them, even with improvements. Someone that thinks they are important needs to step up and really make them work. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker@noaa.gov
