[Numpy-discussion] Possible bug: uint64 + int gives float64

[Nadav Horesh]

int can be larger than numpy.int64 therefore it should be coerced to float64 (or float96/float128)

Hi,
I just noticed some weird behavior in operations with uint64 and int,
heres an example:

>>> numpy.uint64(3)+1
    4.0
>>> type(numpy.uint64(3)+1)
    <type 'numpy.float64'>
