For string arrays you need to specify the length of the string as part
of the data type (and it defaults to length 1):
In [11]: random.normal(size=(2,3)).astype("|S20")
Out[11]:
array([['-0.223407464804', '1.1952765837', '-2.24073805089'],
['1.36604738338', '-0.197059880309', '2.15648625075']],
dtype='|S20')
In [12]: random.normal(size=(2,3)).astype("|S2")
Out[12]:
array([['-0', '1.', '-0'],
['0.', '0.', '1.']],
dtype='|S2')
In [13]: random.normal(size=(2,3)).astype("str")
Out[13]:
array([['-', '1', '1'],
['-', '-', '0']],
dtype='|S1')
