[Numpy-discussion] high dimensional array -> python scalar/index

2013-01-06 Thread Sebastian Berg
Question for everyone, is this really reasonable: >>> import numpy as np >>> from operator import index >>> index(np.array([[5]])) 5 >>> int(np.array([[5]])) 5 >>> [0,1,2,3][np.array([[2]])] 2 To me, this does not make sense, why should we allow to use a high dimensional object like a normal scal
