[Numpy-discussion] searchsorted bug

[lorenzo bolla]

oops. it fails also on an SGI Altix with Suse Linux on it:
Linux pico 2.6.16.27-0.9-default #1 SMP Tue Feb 13 09:35:18 UTC 2007 ia64
ia64 ia64 GNU/Linux

--------------------------------------------
In [33]: A = numpy.array(['a','aa','b'])
In [34]: B = numpy.array(['d','e'])
In [35]: A.searchsorted(B)
Out[35]: array([3, 0])
In [36]: numpy.__version__
Out[36]: '1.0.5.dev4567'
--------------------------------------------

The problem seems to be in the different dtypes of A and B.
Using the same dtype '|S2' it works fine.

 --------------------------------------------
In [38]: A = numpy.array(['a','aa','b'])

In [39]: A.dtype
Out[39]:
dtype('|S2')

In [40]: B = numpy.array(['d','e'])
In [41]: A.searchsorted(B)
Out[41]: array([3, 0])
In [42]: B = numpy.array(['d','e'], dtype='|S2')
In [43]: A.searchsorted(B)
Out[43]: array([3, 3])
 --------------------------------------------
