Ah, got it. Thanks, Chris! I thought recarray can be only one-dimensional (like tables with named columns).
Maybe it's better to ask directly what I was looking for: something that works like a table with named columns (but no labelling for rows), and keeps data (of different dtypes) in a column-by-column way (and this is numpy, not pandas). Is there such a magic thing?
