or even two or three entries. I often use a (2,) or (3,) numpy array to represent an (x,y) point (usually pulled out from a Nx2 array). I like it 'cause i can do array math, etc. it makes the code cleaner, but it's actually faster to use tuples and do the indexing by hand :-( but yes, having something built-in, or at least very compatible with numpy would be best. -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 [email protected] http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
