Re: [Numpy-discussion] Would like to patch docstring for numpy.random.normal

Sturia, > Change the name of keyword arguments? > This would be evil. Yes, I see this now. It is really a shame these were defined as keyword arguments. I've shown the docstring to a few people and so far they all agree that it is unnecessarily convoluted.

[Numpy-discussion] linalg.norm probems

Hi All, This is with reference to issue #5626 . Currently linalg.norm converts the input like so `x = asarray(x)`. This can produce integer arrays, which in turn may create problems of overflow, or the failure of the abs functions for minimum values of

[Numpy-discussion] ANN: xray v0.4 released

I'm pleased to announce a major release of xray, v0.4. xray is an open source project and Python package that aims to bring the labeled data power of pandas to the physical sciences, by providing N-dimensional variants of the core pandas data structures. Our goal is to provide a pandas-like and p
