In [1]: from numpy import *

In [2]: seterr?
Type:             function
Base Class:       <type 'function'>
Namespace:        Interactive
File:             /Users/rkern/svn/numpy/numpy/core/numeric.py
Definition:       seterr(all=None, divide=None, over=None, under=None, 
invalid=None)
Docstring:
    Set how floating-point errors are handled.

    Valid values for each type of error are the strings
    "ignore", "warn", "raise", and "call". Returns the old settings.
    If 'all' is specified, values that are not otherwise specified
    will be set to 'all', otherwise they will retain their old
    values.

    Note that operations on integer scalar types (such as int16) are
    handled like floating point, and are affected by these settings.

    Example:

    >>> seterr(over='raise') # doctest: +SKIP
    {'over': 'ignore', 'divide': 'ignore', 'invalid': 'ignore', 'under': 
'ignore'}

    >>> seterr(all='warn', over='raise') # doctest: +SKIP
    {'over': 'raise', 'divide': 'ignore', 'invalid': 'ignore', 'under': 
'ignore'}

    >>> int16(32000) * int16(3) # doctest: +SKIP
    Traceback (most recent call last):
          File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
    FloatingPointError: overflow encountered in short_scalars
    >>> seterr(all='ignore') # doctest: +SKIP
    {'over': 'ignore', 'divide': 'ignore', 'invalid': 'ignore', 'under': 
'ignore'}

In [3]: seterr(divide='raise')
Out[3]: {'divide': 'print', 'invalid': 'print', 'over': 'print', 'under': 
'ignore'}

In [4]: ones(10) / zeros(10)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
FloatingPointError                        Traceback (most recent call last)

/Users/rkern/svn/mpl-toolkits/<ipython console> in <module>()

FloatingPointError: divide by zero encountered in divide

In [5]: seterr(all='ignore')
Out[5]: {'divide': 'raise', 'invalid': 'print', 'over': 'print', 'under': 
'ignore'}

In [6]: ones(10) / zeros(10)
Out[6]: array([ Inf,  Inf,  Inf,  Inf,  Inf,  Inf,  Inf,  Inf,  Inf,  Inf])
