[Numpy-discussion] Operations on integer matrices known to return integers

We now have >>> a = array([[1, 2], [3, 4]], dtype=int8) array([[1, 2], [3, 4]], dtype=int8) >>> d = linalg.det(a) >>> d -2.0004 >>> d.dtype dtype('float64') This is at least partly due to use of LU factorization in computing the determinant. Some operations on integer m

[Numpy-discussion] Looking for the most important bugs, documentation needs, etc.

Hi all, Some colleagues and I are interested in contributing to numpy. We have a range of backgrounds -- I for example am new to contributing to open source software but have a (small) bit of background in scientific computation, while others have extensive experience contributing to open source p
