well I don't ;-) But that might have to do with my lousy organization.
Here's what I have right now, from a friend I got a library, with the message, add this line at the top of your code, and you can use everthing in the library:
from my_friends_module import *
In my friends module there is the following code
from array import array
Now I get my N-less "array". So I probably shouldn't have followed my friends advice, and I should just have written
import my_friends_module
Another solution could be, but don't know if it's safe enough
from my_friends_module import * # and always as the last import do my own from scipy import array
Why not this: from my_friends_module import foo,bar from scipy import array Which (if the apis) are compatible would allow a drop in replacement latter of: from my_friends_module2 import foo,bar from numpy import array with no other code changes. I'm assuming we're talking about long term maintained code, and not just a quick script. For that case I do the: import numpy as N import pylab as P Ryan -- Ryan May Graduate Research Assistant School of Meteorology University of Oklahoma
