Hi all,
As the Python doc says: "The for statement in Python differs a bit from what
you may be used to in C or Pascal. Rather than giving the user the ability
to define both the iteration step and halting condition (as C), Python's for
statement iterates over the items of any sequence (a list

Hi people,
If I've two numpy arrays, is there a non-looping way of finding common

b = array([ 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14])

__getitem__ is a method builtin to a dict object. itemgetter 1) has to be
imported 2) is more generically used, therefore probably using a more
generic/slower algorithm
