Re: [Numpy-discussion] Fwd: GPU Numpy

2009-08-20 Thread Erik Tollerud
I realize this topic is a bit old, but I couldn't help but add something I forgot to mention earlier... I mean, once the computations are moved elsewhere numpy is basically a convenient way to address memory. That is how I mostly use NumPy, though. Computations I often do in Fortran 95 or C.

I agree with David's comments. In that theme I have removed scipy.stsci from scipy. Users get it directly from us at STScI via STSCI_PYTHON. It doesn't have any documentation in the doc system. It isn't by default in the scipy namespace. And as a recent bug report indicates they can't
