[New-bugs-announce] [issue12834] memoryview.tobytes() incorrect for non-contiguous arrays

[Stefan Krah]

New submission from Stefan Krah <stefan-usenet at bytereef.org>:

memoryview.tobytes() converts a non-contiguous array to
a contiguous representation. This result is not right:


>>> from numpy import *
>>> x = array([1,2,3,4,5], dtype="B")
>>> y = x[::-1]
>>> y
array([5, 4, 3, 2, 1], dtype=uint8)
>>> m = memoryview(y)
>>> m.tobytes()
'\x04\x03\x02\x01\x05'
>>>
