In theory it would be possible to queue up common sequences of
operations, a bit like you did with numpy's lazy evaluation; e.g. an
expression like "z = x * 3 + y" could be processed in only one walk
through the digits.

Just saying.  This is very unlikely to give any performance gain
unless the numbers are very large.


A bientôt,

Armin.
