[Numpy-discussion] Adding a 2D with a 1D array...

[Ruben Salvador]

Well...you are right, sorry, I just thought 'np.shape(offspr)' result would
be enough. Obviously, not!

offspr wasn't actually a numpy array, but a Python list. I'm sorry for the
inconvenience but I didn't realize....I'm just changing my code so that I
just use numpy arrays, and forgot to change offspr definition :S It's always
better not to hurry and check the changes deeper.

I'lll put some time in profiling the code properly later on....now I just
need to finish this! Any pointer where to start a rationale 'sane profiling
techniques'? I love reading details and explanations, but don't have the
time to go through hundreds of pages right now, so...some good trade-off
between practical and extensive docs?

Thanks everybody!
