Ah! I believe the difference between medover and median is a clump(-1) to
collapse the dimensions
There does it indeed to be something wrong with clump too, so that is probably
the underlying cause
pdl> $x = rcols 'tmp.dat'
Reading data into ndarrays of type: [ Double ]
Read in 4 elements.
pdl> p $x
[1 2 3 4]
pdl> $x *= 100
pdl> p $x
[100 200 300 400]
pdl> p $x->clump(-1)
[0 0 0 0]
What could be happening in rcols() that produces an ndarray that behaves like
that?
