I came across this problem which appears to be new in numpy 1.6.2 (vs. 1.6.1):
In [17]: a = np.array([(1, )], dtype=[('a', 'i4')])
In [18]: ra = a.view(np.recarray)
In [19]: '{}'.format(ra[0])
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
RuntimeError Traceback (most recent call last)
/data/baffin/tom/git/eng_archive/<ipython-input-19-cbdd26e3ea78> in <module>()
----> 1 '{}'.format(ra[0])
RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object
In [20]: str(ra[0])
Out[20]: '(1,)'
In [21]: ra[0]
Out[21]: (1,)
There are obvious workarounds but it seems something is not right.
I'm running Python 2.7 on linux x86_64.
Cheers,
Tom
