Option 1 is the way to go if you want a quick and dirty multidimensional array module that currently has a lot of community support. Numarray/Numeric 3 was designed with the C programming language in mind and is therefore constrained by C's lack of object-oriented features. The Numarray code can be quite dense and complex, making it difficult for someone new to the code to add new features.
Option 2 is the preferred long term solution, since you will be able to use the object-oriented features of C++ or C# to simpify the design and implementation. The module is also likely to be faster for small arrays and more efficient, particularly for operations that involved Python sequences and multidimensional arrays. IronPython provides an excellent opportunity to design and implement a multidimensional array module that uses OO language features for fast and efficient code. Let me know if you would like me to elaborate on this some more. -- Paul Barrett _______________________________________________ users-ironpython.com mailing list users-ironpython.com@lists.ironpython.com http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com
