Yes, it's correct. np.uint is a concrete type that is the platform-specific C unsigned long type: |1> np.uint <type 'numpy.uint32'> The abstract base type is np.unsignedinteger: |3> np.issubdtype(np.uint16, np.unsignedinteger) True -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
