except for empty tuple constructor, a comma defines a tuple and parenthesis are just parenthesis >>> type((a*b)) <type 'numpy.ndarray'> >>> type((a*b,)) <type 'tuple'> >>> a*b, (array([0, 1]),) >>> type(_) <type 'tuple'> Josef > > -- > Gökhan > > _______________________________________________ > NumPy-Discussion mailing list > NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org > http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion > > _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
