Someone thought that it was a sufficient condition. If it is not, then it should be fixed. > Why not > testing for every function we are using ? There are a lot of them. Feel free to add any additional tests you think are necessary, and we'll see how painful it is at build-time. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
