[Numpy-discussion] integer array creation oddity

[Suchindra Sandhu]

Hi,

Can someone please explain to me this oddity?

In [1]: import numpy as n

In [8]: a = n.array((1,2,3), 'i')

In [9]: type(a[0])
Out[9]: <type 'numpy.int32'>

In [10]: type(a[0]) == n.int32
Out[10]: False

When I create an array with 'int', 'int32' etc it works fine

What is the type of 'i' and what is n.int0?

Thanks,
Suchindra
