Thanks Travis. Is there a reason why numpy insists on tuples?
Anyway, moving on, this brings me to the real problem I wanted to
post. I can do an attribute lookup on an element of a recarray which
has been created by fromrecords, however I cannot do attribute lookups
on ndarrays that have been viewed as recarrays. Any ideas how to
proceed.
In [469]: import numpy as np
In [470]: print np.__version__
1.2.0.dev5243
In [471]: dtype=np.dtype([('spam', '<i4'),('ham', '<i4')] )
In [472]: data = [ (1,2), (3,4), (5,6) ]
In [473]: n = np.rec.fromrecords(data, dtype=dtype)
In [474]: print "n[0].spam=", n[0].spam
n[0].spam= 1
In [475]: b = np.array( data, dtype=dtype)
In [476]: b = b.view(np.rec.recarray)
In [477]: print "b[0].spam=", b[0].spam
b[0].spam=---------------------------------------------------------------------------
