I have a function F def F(a, b): c = a * b Initially, a is a scalar, b[240,3000]. No problem. Later I want to use F, where a[240] is a vector. I want to allow both the scalar and vector cases. So I write:
def F(a,b): a = np.atleast_1d(a) c = a[:,None] * b This now works for scalar a or vector a. But this solutions seems inelegant, and somewhat fragile. Suppose later we want to allow a[240,3000], a 2d array matching b. Certainly don't want to write code like: if a.ndim == 0:... Is there a more elegant/robust approach? Thanks, Neal
