Yes. > Should > that be a failure? Yes, I believe it's important to test numpy's default settings (and make sure that nothing else in numpy fudges with them). We have had regressions in the past that went unnoticed for years. Rather, you should not be running the test suite from an environment with a bunch of other packages imported (I know, I know, the existence of np.test() kind of implicitly encourages this, but still...). -- 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 [email protected] http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
