Hi all,
I added a proposal to deprecate inexact and case insensitive matches for
mode, order, searchside and sortkind. in
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/16056 , and this stemmed from a
discussion started in
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/16007#discussion_r410517462
Currently, numpy allows :
np.ravel_multi_index(arr, (7, 6), mode='Clip')
np.ravel_multi_index(arr, (7, 6), mode='C')
np.ravel_multi_index(arr, (7, 6), mode='cat')
We have a similar story for order, searchside and sortkind. After the
change, all non exact and case insensitive matches will give a
deprecationwarning i.e. only exact matches for mode('clip', 'wrap' and
'raise'), order('C', 'F', 'A', 'K'), searchside ('left', 'right') and
sortkind ('merge', 'heap', 'stable', 'quick') will be valid.
The PR also includes 'byteorder' but i am not too sure about this since
(as pointed out in the PR) sys.byteorder uses 'big', 'little' etc. while
the numpy documentation uses single capital character to indicate byteorder
('S', 'L’, 'B', 'N', 'I').
