Even so, surely this behavior should be consistent between base class ndarrays and subclasses? If returning 0d arrays is a good idea, then we should do it everywhere. If it's a bad idea, then we shouldn't do it at all...? (In reality, it sounds like this might be some mishap in the __array_wrap__ mechanism?) - Nathaniel _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
