Hello Everyone, Another behavior we might consider changing for 1.0.2 that I believe is somewhat related in theme is the default type used in computations like the mean() method. This is best illustrated with the following example: sparty python Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Sep 21 2006, 13:33:15)

A ticket was posted that emphasizes that the current behavior of NumPy with regards to scalar coercion is different than numarray's behavior. If we were pre 1.0, I would probably change the behavior to be in-line with numarray. But, now I think it needs some discussion because we are
