Re: [Numpy-discussion] Disabling Extended Precision in NumPy (like -ffloat-store)

2010-04-23 Thread Adrien Guillon
Thank you for your questions... I'll answer them now. The motivation behind using Python and NumPy is to be able to "double check" that the numerical algorithms work okay in an engineer/scientist friendly language. We're basically prototyping a bunch of algorithms in Python, validating that they
