Hello,

<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35005569/behavior-of-ufuncs-and-mathematical-operators-differ-for-subclassed-maskedarray>

Much of what is below was copied from this stack overflow question.

I am attempting to subclass numpy.ma.MaskedArray.  I am currently using Python 
v2.7.10.  The problem discussed below does not occur in Numpy v1.9.2, but does 
occur in all versions of Numpy v1.10.x.

In all versions of Numpy v1.10.x, using mathematical operators on my subclass 
behaves differently than using the analogous ufunc. When using the ufunc 
directly (e.g. np.subtract(arr1, arr2)), __array_prepare__, __array_finalize__, 
and __array_wrap__ are all called as expected, however, when using the symbolic 
operator (e.g. arr1-arr2) only __array_finalize__ is called. As a consequence, 
I lose any information stored in arr._optinfo when a mathematical operator is 
used.

Here is a code snippet that illustrates the issue.

#!/bin/env python

import numpy as np
from numpy.ma import MaskedArray, nomask

class InfoArray(MaskedArray):
    def __new__(cls, info=None, data=None, mask=nomask, dtype=None,
                copy=False, subok=True, ndmin=0, fill_value=None,
                keep_mask=True, hard_mask=None, shrink=True, **kwargs):
        obj = super(InfoArray, cls).__new__(cls, data=data, mask=mask,
                      dtype=dtype, copy=copy, subok=subok, ndmin=ndmin,
                      fill_value=fill_value, hard_mask=hard_mask,
                      shrink=shrink, **kwargs)
        obj._optinfo['info'] = info
        return obj

    def __array_prepare__(self, out, context=None):
        print '__array_prepare__'
        return super(InfoArray, self).__array_prepare__(out, context)

    def __array_wrap__(self, out, context=None):
        print '__array_wrap__'
        return super(InfoArray, self).__array_wrap__(out, context)

    def __array_finalize__(self, obj):
        print '__array_finalize__'
        return super(InfoArray, self).__array_finalize__(obj)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    arr1 = InfoArray('test', data=[1,2,3,4,5,6])
    arr2 = InfoArray(data=[0,1,2,3,4,5])

    diff1 = np.subtract(arr1, arr2)
    print diff1._optinfo

    diff2 = arr1-arr2
    print diff2._optinfo

If run, the output looks like this:

$ python test_ma_sub.py
#Call to np.subtract(arr1, arr2) here
__array_finalize__
__array_finalize__
__array_prepare__
__array_finalize__
__array_wrap__
__array_finalize__
{'info': 'test'}
#Executing arr1-arr2 here
__array_finalize__
{}

Currently I have simply downgraded to 1.9.2 to solve the problem for myself, 
but have been having difficulty figuring out where the difference lies between 
1.9.2 and 1.10.0.

Thanks,

Jeremy
