Hi all, I'm wondering if there is a way to get the range of values a given dtype can hold?
essentially, I'm looking for something like sys.maxint, for for whatever numpy dtype I have n hand (and eps for floating point types). I was hoping there would be something like a_dtype.max_value a_dtype.min_value etc. In this case, I have a uint16, so I can hard code it, but it would be nice to be able to be write the code in a more generic fashion. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
