To be clear, you mean that this worked to replace the statement "from Numeric import *" in the older code that you mentioned in your previous thread. > Should I use > from numpy import * > (Does the first statement use outdated software?) The first statement exposes an API which is mostly compatible with the older Numeric API. The underlying software is up-to-date, but the interface is not. > I want to use 2-D arrays. Please advise me on the best way to do this. If you are writing new code, you should use "import numpy" (as an orthogonal note, "from <foo> import *" is discouraged). Only use numpy.oldnumeric if you need to use old code and do not have the time or resources to update it to use the new API. -- 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
