I don't know the answer, but Python 2.x has similar behavior for the built-in round(): round(2.7) returns 3.0 (float!) I think I read that Python 3.2 will change this to round(2.7) returning 3 (int!) - Sebastian Haase _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
