1) kwarg names: "tol" and "abs_tol" versus "atol", "rtol". Numpy's names seem fine to me, but if you want the longer ones then probably "rel_tol", "abs_tol" would be better?
Longer names preferable. It was quite a long way into the original thread before I understood what "atol" meant - my brain kept wanting it to be related to the atoi family of functions from C (ASCII to Integer (atoi), ASCII to Long (atol), etc, converting strings to integers). ChrisA
