Hi Matti, In the original implementation of what was then __numpy_ufunc__, we had overrides for both `np.dot` and `np.matmul` that worked exactly as your option (2), but we decided in the end that those really are not true ufuncs and we should not include ufunc mimics in the mix as someone using `__array_ufunc__` should be able to count on being passed a ufunc, including all its properties. Perhaps this needs revisiting, and we should have some UFuncABC... But my own feeling remains that matmul is close enough to a (set of) gufunc that making it fit the gufunc mold is the way to go...
All the best, Marten _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
