user-defined type example

[Matt Knox]

Could someone please point me to/provide me with a basic example of creating a user defined type?
 
Here is my completely naive attempt which obviously doesn't work...import numpy
 
class myType(numpy.void):    def __init__(self,val):        self.val = val
 
testType = numpy.dtype(myType)
val1 = myType(5)val2 = myType(6)
 
foo = numpy.array([val1,val2],testType)
 
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
