But: even without bug, only the native python sizes (float64 and int32/int64) are subclasses of the python types, yet all of them are coercible to floats. What I wanted was to prevent this: >>> v = dolfin.Vector(1) >>> print type(numpy.float64(1) * v) <type 'numpy.ndarray'> ... but it didn't achieve that due to float64.__mul__ being called before Vector.__rmul__. So this still needs looking at, to ensure the Vector isn't implicitly converted to an ndarray (so that Vector.__rmul__ is called as it should). -j.
