[Numpy-discussion] How to tell whether I am using 32 bit or 64 bit numpy?

[John Reid]

Sorry for noise, it is my mistake. My assumption that the box is 64 bit 
was wrong :(

At least the processors are 64 bit :   	
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T9600

but uname -m reports:
i686

which as far as I understand means it thinks it is a 32 bit processor. 
If anyone knows better please let me know.

John.
