Hi, We need to make a dtype that needs to be defined in the user's application space. In the NumPy book there is a section devoted to this subject, but also warns: """ Adding data-types is one of the less well-tested areas for NumPy 1.0, so there may be bugs remaining in the approach. """ Anybody out there has tried this successfully? Thanks, -- Francesc Alted

Not me, but it is on my list. You will probably want to use at least a few ufuncs with it, no? The new type will probably also need a type number. Oh, Heck, give it a shot. Someone has to go first O_o Chuck
