How could it be possible? If you only have the buffer data, there could be many different valid shapes associated to this data. -=- Olivier 2011/8/19 Ian > Hello list, > > I am storing a multidimensional array as binary in a Postgres 9.04 > database. For retrieval of this array from the databas

[Numpy-discussion] Reconstruct multidimensional array from buffer without shape

2011-08-19 Thread Ian
Hello list, I am storing a multidimensional array as binary in a Postgres 9.04 database. For retrieval of this array from the database I thought frombuffer() was my solution, however I see that this constructs a one-dimensional array. I read in the documentation about the buffer parameter in th
