How would you compare the elements?
In [27]: 2 < [0,0]
Out[27]: True
In [28]: [0,0] > 2
Out[28]: True
Compares memory locations?
In [28]: [2] < [0,0]
Out[28]: False
Lexical ordering?
I don't know how python interprets these things. That said, I suspect your example should behave better, but it might give strange results sometimes anyway.

I recently upgraded to numpy 1.0 from 1.0b5. I noticed that numpy.argmax behavior is very strange on object arrays. See below:(Pdb) numpy.__version__
'1.0'(Pdb) numpy.argmax(numpy.array([2, 3], dtype=object))
0
(Pdb) numpy.argmax(numpy.array([2, 3], dtype=int))
1(Pdb) numpy.argmax(numpy.array([2, 3], dtype=object), axis=0)
0
I would expect the argmax to behave the same on the dtype=int and dtype=object examples but it doesn't. Am I missing some subtelty or is this just a bug? 1.0 is the most recent version, right?
