I'm personally not really partial to any side of this discussion, given how I don't use matrices at all (I'm content with a simple mental model of arrays, and use dot() as necessary). But it's probably worth mentioning, as a data point, that the python language has a well established precedent for 'iteration over a FOO where a FOO is yielded': In [1]: s='abc' In [2]: type(s) Out[2]: <type 'str'> In [3]: map(type,s) Out[3]: [<type 'str'>, <type 'str'>, <type 'str'>] I know strings aren't matrices, so take this as you will in terms of being plus, neutral or minus regarding your discussion. I'm just offering the data, not interpreting it :) Cheers, f _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
