Is this a reasonable (and fast) way to create a bool array in cython? def makebool(): cdef: int n = 2 np.npy_intp *dims = [n] np.ndarray[np.uint8_t, ndim=1] a a = PyArray_EMPTY(1, dims, NPY_UINT8, 0) a[0] = 1 a[1] = 0 a.dtype = np.bool return a
Will a numpy bool array be np.uint8 on all platforms? How can I do a.dtype=np.bool using the numpy C api? Is there any point (speed) in doing so? _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
