Into numpy itself? Very low probability, I think. The dependency on nVidia hardware and proprietary compilers makes supporting it as a build option in numpy itself too much effort for too little gain, not to mention the heuristics necessary to decide when to switch from the CPU implementations to the GPU implementations. The best value/cost ratio can probably be achieved by a separate package that wraps these routines with functions signature-compatible with those in numpy.linalg. -- 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 [email protected] http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
