Hi!
Is there a way to query the minimum and maximum values of the numpy datatypes?
E.g. numpy.uint8.max == 255, numpy.uint8.min == 0 (these attributes exist, but they are functions, obviously for technical reasons).
Ciao, / / /--/ / / ANS

I had the same problem sooner today, someone told me the answer : use numpy.info object ;)

I saw this shortly after posting (what a coincidence), and I planned to reply to myself, but my mail did not make it to the list very quickly.. (nearly two hours!)
Thanks, that's indeed what I was looking for.

numpy.iinfo (notice the two i's) (integer information) numpy.finfo (floating point information)
Example:
numpy.iinfo(numpy.uint8).max numpy.iinfo(numpy.int16).min
You pass the datatype to the numpy.iinfo() constructor and then get attributes on the result..
