Really I do not understand what you want to do especially when the ticket contains some very basic errors. Can you please provide a couple of real examples with expected output that clearly show what you want? >From a statistical viewpoint, np.cov is correct because it outputs the variance/covariance matrix. Also I believe that changing the np.cov function will cause major havoc because numpy and people's code depend on the current behavior.
