Cool! How is the different/better than the old standby f2c? One issue with f2c is that it required a pretty good set of libs to support stuff that Fortran had that C didn't -- complex numbers come to mind, I'm not sure what else was is in libf2c. In fact, I've often wondered why scipy doesn't use f2c. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
