There really aren't any transparent fast fft convolutions in SciPy. The closest thing is in signaltools, fftconvolve, and if you ask it to convolve, say, sequences whose length add up to 7902, then it will do a size 7901 transform. BTW, is this really a glitch ? I think there is two schools th

Umm, no, There really aren't any transparent fast fft convolutions in SciPy. The closest thing is in signaltools, fftconvolve, and if you ask it to convolve, say, sequences whose length add up to 7902, then it will do a size 7901 transform. Because 7901 is prime this takes about 300 times as lon

I'd like to see some NumPy/SciPy participation in this. I'm thinking of submitting a "Python as a Tool of Thought" paper, playing off of Ken Iverson's Turing Award Lecture "Notation as a Tool of Thought". A NumPy/SciPy tutorial would be valuable as well. # Steve ==

Hi, I am wondering whether it's possible to pass (and get back) arrays of complex floats via ctypes. To be concrete, I have managed to access lapack's dgges (Fortran) function using ctypes (thanks to a related example on this list), and now I would like to do the same with the complex version zgge

Thanks, Travis. I don't have problem building other applications on the same platform. Are there any files in the extracted /numpy-1.0.3 that I can modify the path of the C compiler? I have checked all the files in it withouth luck. Thanks a lot. Quoting Travis Oliphant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >
