### 1.15.2
```
==========================
This is a bugfix release for bugs and regressions reported following the 1.15.1
release.
* The matrix PendingDeprecationWarning is now suppressed in pytest 3.8.
* The new cached allocations machinery has been fixed to be thread safe.
* The boolean indexing of subclasses now works correctly.
* A small memory leak in PyArray_AdaptFlexibleDType has been fixed.
The Python versions supported by this release are 2.7, 3.4-3.7. The wheels are
linked with OpenBLAS v0.3.0, which should fix some of the linalg problems
reported for NumPy 1.14.
Compatibility Note
==================
The NumPy 1.15.x OS X wheels released on PyPI no longer contain 32-bit
binaries. That will also be the case in future releases. See
`11625 <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/11625>`__ for the related
discussion. Those needing 32-bit support should look elsewhere or build
from source.

```
### 1.15.1
```
==========================
This is a bugfix release for bugs and regressions reported following the 1.15.0
release.
* The annoying but harmless RuntimeWarning that "numpy.dtype size changed" has
been suppressed. The long standing suppression was lost in the transition to
pytest.
* The update to Cython 0.28.3 exposed a problematic use of a gcc attribute used
to prefer code size over speed in module initialization, possibly resulting in
incorrect compiled code. This has been fixed in latest Cython but has been
disabled here for safety.
* Support for big-endian and ARMv8 architectures has been improved.
The Python versions supported by this release are 2.7, 3.4-3.7. The wheels are
linked with OpenBLAS v0.3.0, which should fix some of the linalg problems
reported for NumPy 1.14.

```
### 1.15.0
```
==========================
NumPy 1.15.0 is a release with an unusual number of cleanups, many deprecations
of old functions, and improvements to many existing functions. Please read the
detailed descriptions below to see if you are affected.
For testing, we have switched to pytest as a replacement for the no longer
maintained nose framework. The old nose based interface remains for downstream
projects who may still be using it.
The Python versions supported by this release are 2.7, 3.4-3.7. The wheels are
linked with OpenBLAS v0.3.0, which should fix some of the linalg problems
reported for NumPy 1.14.
Highlights
==========
* NumPy has switched to pytest for testing.
* A new `numpy.printoptions` context manager.
* Many improvements to the histogram functions.
* Support for unicode field names in python 2.7.
* Improved support for PyPy.
* Fixes and improvements to `numpy.einsum`.
New functions
=============
* `numpy.gcd` and `numpy.lcm`, to compute the greatest common divisor and least
common multiple.
* `numpy.ma.stack`, the `numpy.stack` array-joining function generalized to
masked arrays.
* `numpy.quantile` function, an interface to ``percentile`` without factors of
100
* `numpy.nanquantile` function, an interface to ``nanpercentile`` without
factors of 100
* `numpy.printoptions`, a context manager that sets print options temporarily
for the scope of the ``with`` block::
>>> with np.printoptions(precision=2):
... print(np.array([2.0]) / 3)
[0.67]
* `numpy.histogram_bin_edges`, a function to get the edges of the bins used by a
histogram without needing to calculate the histogram.
* C functions `npy_get_floatstatus_barrier` and `npy_clear_floatstatus_barrier`
have been added to deal with compiler optimization changing the order of
operations. See below for details.
Deprecations
============
* Aliases of builtin `pickle` functions are deprecated, in favor of their
unaliased ``pickle.<func>`` names:
* `numpy.loads`
* `numpy.core.numeric.load`
* `numpy.core.numeric.loads`
* `numpy.ma.loads`, `numpy.ma.dumps`
* `numpy.ma.load`, `numpy.ma.dump` - these functions already failed on
python 3 when called with a string.
* Multidimensional indexing with anything but a tuple is deprecated. This means
that the index list in ``ind = [slice(None), 0]; arr[ind]`` should be changed
to a tuple, e.g., ``ind = [slice(None), 0]; arr[tuple(ind)]`` or
``arr[(slice(None), 0)]``. That change is necessary to avoid ambiguity in
expressions such as ``arr[[[0, 1], [0, 1]]]``, currently interpreted as
``arr[array([0, 1]), array([0, 1])]``, that will be interpreted
as ``arr[array([[0, 1], [0, 1]])]`` in the future.
* Imports from the following sub-modules are deprecated, they will be removed
at some future date.
* `numpy.testing.utils`
* `numpy.testing.decorators`
* `numpy.testing.nosetester`
* `numpy.testing.noseclasses`
* `numpy.core.umath_tests`
* Giving a generator to `numpy.sum` is now deprecated. This was undocumented
behavior, but worked. Previously, it would calculate the sum of the generator
expression. In the future, it might return a different result. Use
``np.sum(np.from_iter(generator))`` or the built-in Python ``sum`` instead.
* Users of the C-API should call ``PyArrayResolveWriteBackIfCopy`` or
``PyArray_DiscardWritbackIfCopy`` on any array with the ``WRITEBACKIFCOPY``
flag set, before deallocating the array. A deprecation warning will be
emitted if those calls are not used when needed.
* Users of ``nditer`` should use the nditer object as a context manager
anytime one of the iterator operands is writeable, so that numpy can
manage writeback semantics, or should call ``it.close()``. A
`RuntimeWarning` may be emitted otherwise in these cases.
* The ``normed`` argument of ``np.histogram``, deprecated long ago in 1.6.0,
now emits a ``DeprecationWarning``.
Future Changes
==============
* NumPy 1.16 will drop support for Python 3.4.
* NumPy 1.17 will drop support for Python 2.7.
Compatibility notes
===================
Compiled testing modules renamed and made private
-------------------------------------------------
The following compiled modules have been renamed and made private:
* ``umath_tests`` -> ``_umath_tests``
* ``test_rational`` -> ``_rational_tests``
* ``multiarray_tests`` -> ``_multiarray_tests``
* ``struct_ufunc_test`` -> ``_struct_ufunc_tests``
* ``operand_flag_tests`` -> ``_operand_flag_tests``
The ``umath_tests`` module is still available for backwards compatibility, but
will be removed in the future.
The ``NpzFile`` returned by ``np.savez`` is now a ``collections.abc.Mapping``
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This means it behaves like a readonly dictionary, and has a new ``.values()``
method and ``len()`` implementation.
For python 3, this means that ``.iteritems()``, ``.iterkeys()`` have been
deprecated, and ``.keys()`` and ``.items()`` now return views and not lists.
This is consistent with how the builtin ``dict`` type changed between python 2
and python 3.
Under certain conditions, ``nditer`` must be used in a context manager
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When using an `numpy.nditer` with the ``"writeonly"`` or ``"readwrite"`` flags, there
are some circumstances where nditer doesn't actually give you a view of the
writable array. Instead, it gives you a copy, and if you make changes to the
copy, nditer later writes those changes back into your actual array. Currently,
this writeback occurs when the array objects are garbage collected, which makes
this API error-prone on CPython and entirely broken on PyPy. Therefore,
``nditer`` should now be used as a context manager whenever it is used
with writeable arrays, e.g., ``with np.nditer(...) as it: ...``. You may also
explicitly call ``it.close()`` for cases where a context manager is unusable,
for instance in generator expressions.
Numpy has switched to using pytest instead of nose for testing
--------------------------------------------------------------
The last nose release was 1.3.7 in June, 2015, and development of that tool has
ended, consequently NumPy has now switched to using pytest. The old decorators
and nose tools that were previously used by some downstream projects remain
available, but will not be maintained. The standard testing utilities,
``assert_almost_equal`` and such, are not be affected by this change except for
the nose specific functions ``import_nose`` and ``raises``. Those functions are
not used in numpy, but are kept for downstream compatibility.
Numpy no longer monkey-patches ``ctypes`` with ``__array_interface__``
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Previously numpy added ``__array_interface__`` attributes to all the integer
types from ``ctypes``.
``np.ma.notmasked_contiguous`` and ``np.ma.flatnotmasked_contiguous`` always return lists
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the documented behavior, but previously the result could be any of
slice, None, or list.
All downstream users seem to check for the ``None`` result from
``flatnotmasked_contiguous`` and replace it with ``[]``. Those callers will
continue to work as before.
``np.squeeze`` restores old behavior of objects that cannot handle an ``axis`` argument
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prior to version ``1.7.0``, `numpy.squeeze` did not have an ``axis`` argument and
all empty axes were removed by default. The incorporation of an ``axis``
argument made it possible to selectively squeeze single or multiple empty axes,
but the old API expectation was not respected because axes could still be
selectively removed (silent success) from an object expecting all empty axes to
be removed. That silent, selective removal of empty axes for objects expecting
the old behavior has been fixed and the old behavior restored.
unstructured void array's ``.item`` method now returns a bytes object
---------------------------------------------------------------------
``.item`` now returns a ``bytes`` object instead of a buffer or byte array.
This may affect code which assumed the return value was mutable, which is no
longer the case.
``copy.copy`` and ``copy.deepcopy`` no longer turn ``masked`` into an array
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since ``np.ma.masked`` is a readonly scalar, copying should be a no-op. These
functions now behave consistently with ``np.copy()``.
Multifield Indexing of Structured Arrays will still return a copy
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The change that multi-field indexing of structured arrays returns a view
instead of a copy is pushed back to 1.16. A new method
``numpy.lib.recfunctions.repack_fields`` has been introduced to help mitigate
the effects of this change, which can be used to write code compatible with
both numpy 1.15 and 1.16. For more information on how to update code to account
for this future change see the "accessing multiple fields" section of the
`user guide <https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/user/basics.rec.html>`__.
C API changes
=============
New functions ``npy_get_floatstatus_barrier`` and ``npy_clear_floatstatus_barrier``
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Functions ``npy_get_floatstatus_barrier`` and ``npy_clear_floatstatus_barrier``
have been added and should be used in place of the ``npy_get_floatstatus``and
``npy_clear_status`` functions. Optimizing compilers like GCC 8.1 and Clang
were rearranging the order of operations when the previous functions were used
in the ufunc SIMD functions, resulting in the floatstatus flags being checked
before the operation whose status we wanted to check was run. See `10339
<https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/10370>`__.
Changes to ``PyArray_GetDTypeTransferFunction``
-----------------------------------------------
``PyArray_GetDTypeTransferFunction`` now defaults to using user-defined
``copyswapn`` / ``copyswap`` for user-defined dtypes. If this causes a
significant performance hit, consider implementing ``copyswapn`` to reflect the
implementation of ``PyArray_GetStridedCopyFn``. See `10898
<https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/10898>`__.
New Features
============
``np.gcd`` and ``np.lcm`` ufuncs added for integer and objects types
--------------------------------------------------------------------
These compute the greatest common divisor, and lowest common multiple,
respectively. These work on all the numpy integer types, as well as the
builtin arbitrary-precision ``Decimal`` and ``long`` types.
Support for cross-platform builds for iOS
-----------------------------------------
The build system has been modified to add support for the
``_PYTHON_HOST_PLATFORM`` environment variable, used by ``distutils`` when
compiling on one platform for another platform. This makes it possible to
compile NumPy for iOS targets.
This only enables you to compile NumPy for one specific platform at a time.
Creating a full iOS-compatible NumPy package requires building for the 5
architectures supported by iOS (i386, x86_64, armv7, armv7s and arm64), and
combining these 5 compiled builds products into a single "fat" binary.
``return_indices`` keyword added for ``np.intersect1d``
-------------------------------------------------------
New keyword ``return_indices`` returns the indices of the two input arrays
that correspond to the common elements.
``np.quantile`` and ``np.nanquantile``
--------------------------------------
Like ``np.percentile`` and ``np.nanpercentile``, but takes quantiles in [0, 1]
rather than percentiles in [0, 100]. ``np.percentile`` is now a thin wrapper
around ``np.quantile`` with the extra step of dividing by 100.
Build system
------------
Added experimental support for the 64-bit RISC-V architecture.
Improvements
============
``np.einsum`` updates
---------------------
Syncs einsum path optimization tech between `numpy` and `opt_einsum`. In
particular, the `greedy` path has received many enhancements by jcmgray. A
full list of issues fixed are:
* Arbitrary memory can be passed into the `greedy` path. Fixes gh-11210.
* The greedy path has been updated to contain more dynamic programming ideas
preventing a large number of duplicate (and expensive) calls that figure out
the actual pair contraction that takes place. Now takes a few seconds on
several hundred input tensors. Useful for matrix product state theories.
* Reworks the broadcasting dot error catching found in gh-11218 gh-10352 to be
a bit earlier in the process.
* Enhances the `can_dot` functionality that previous missed an edge case (part
of gh-11308).
``np.ufunc.reduce`` and related functions now accept an initial value
---------------------------------------------------------------------
``np.ufunc.reduce``, ``np.sum``, ``np.prod``, ``np.min`` and ``np.max`` all
now accept an ``initial`` keyword argument that specifies the value to start
the reduction with.
``np.flip`` can operate over multiple axes
------------------------------------------
``np.flip`` now accepts None, or tuples of int, in its ``axis`` argument. If
axis is None, it will flip over all the axes.
``histogram`` and ``histogramdd`` functions have moved to ``np.lib.histograms``
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These were originally found in ``np.lib.function_base``. They are still
available under their un-scoped ``np.histogram(dd)`` names, and
to maintain compatibility, aliased at ``np.lib.function_base.histogram(dd)``.
Code that does ``from np.lib.function_base import *`` will need to be updated
with the new location, and should consider not using ``import *`` in future.
``histogram`` will accept NaN values when explicit bins are given
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Previously it would fail when trying to compute a finite range for the data.
Since the range is ignored anyway when the bins are given explicitly, this error
was needless.
Note that calling ``histogram`` on NaN values continues to raise the
``RuntimeWarning`` s typical of working with nan values, which can be silenced
as usual with ``errstate``.
``histogram`` works on datetime types, when explicit bin edges are given
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dates, times, and timedeltas can now be histogrammed. The bin edges must be
passed explicitly, and are not yet computed automatically.
``histogram`` "auto" estimator handles limited variance better
--------------------------------------------------------------
No longer does an IQR of 0 result in ``n_bins=1``, rather the number of bins
chosen is related to the data size in this situation.
The edges retuned by `histogram`` and ``histogramdd`` now match the data float type
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When passed ``np.float16``, ``np.float32``, or ``np.longdouble`` data, the
returned edges are now of the same dtype. Previously, ``histogram`` would only
return the same type if explicit bins were given, and ``histogram`` would
produce ``float64`` bins no matter what the inputs.
``histogramdd`` allows explicit ranges to be given in a subset of axes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The ``range`` argument of `numpy.histogramdd` can now contain ``None`` values to
indicate that the range for the corresponding axis should be computed from the
data. Previously, this could not be specified on a per-axis basis.
The normed arguments of ``histogramdd`` and ``histogram2d`` have been renamed
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
These arguments are now called ``density``, which is consistent with
``histogram``. The old argument continues to work, but the new name should be
preferred.
``np.r_`` works with 0d arrays, and ``np.ma.mr_`` works with ``np.ma.masked``
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0d arrays passed to the `r_` and `mr_` concatenation helpers are now treated as
though they are arrays of length 1. Previously, passing these was an error.
As a result, `numpy.ma.mr_` now works correctly on the ``masked`` constant.
``np.ptp`` accepts a ``keepdims`` argument, and extended axis tuples
--------------------------------------------------------------------
``np.ptp`` (peak-to-peak) can now work over multiple axes, just like ``np.max``
and ``np.min``.
``MaskedArray.astype`` now is identical to ``ndarray.astype``
-------------------------------------------------------------
This means it takes all the same arguments, making more code written for
ndarray work for masked array too.
Enable AVX2/AVX512 at compile time
----------------------------------
Change to simd.inc.src to allow use of AVX2 or AVX512 at compile time. Previously
compilation for avx2 (or 512) with -march=native would still use the SSE
code for the simd functions even when the rest of the code got AVX2.
``nan_to_num`` always returns scalars when receiving scalar or 0d inputs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Previously an array was returned for integer scalar inputs, which is
inconsistent with the behavior for float inputs, and that of ufuncs in general.
For all types of scalar or 0d input, the result is now a scalar.
``np.flatnonzero`` works on numpy-convertible types
---------------------------------------------------
``np.flatnonzero`` now uses ``np.ravel(a)`` instead of ``a.ravel()``, so it
works for lists, tuples, etc.
``np.interp`` returns numpy scalars rather than builtin scalars
---------------------------------------------------------------
Previously ``np.interp(0.5, [0, 1], [10, 20])`` would return a ``float``, but
now it returns a ``np.float64`` object, which more closely matches the behavior
of other functions.
Additionally, the special case of ``np.interp(object_array_0d, ...)`` is no
longer supported, as ``np.interp(object_array_nd)`` was never supported anyway.
As a result of this change, the ``period`` argument can now be used on 0d
arrays.
Allow dtype field names to be unicode in Python 2
-------------------------------------------------
Previously ``np.dtype([(u'name', float)])`` would raise a ``TypeError`` in
Python 2, as only bytestrings were allowed in field names. Now any unicode
string field names will be encoded with the ``ascii`` codec, raising a
``UnicodeEncodeError`` upon failure.
This change makes it easier to write Python 2/3 compatible code using
``from __future__ import unicode_literals``, which previously would cause
string literal field names to raise a TypeError in Python 2.
Comparison ufuncs accept ``dtype=object``, overriding the default ``bool``
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This allows object arrays of symbolic types, which override ``==`` and other
operators to return expressions, to be compared elementwise with
``np.equal(a, b, dtype=object)``.
``sort`` functions accept ``kind='stable'``
-------------------------------------------
Up until now, to perform a stable sort on the data, the user must do:
>>> np.sort([5, 2, 6, 2, 1], kind='mergesort')
[1, 2, 2, 5, 6]
because merge sort is the only stable sorting algorithm available in
NumPy. However, having kind='mergesort' does not make it explicit that
the user wants to perform a stable sort thus harming the readability.
This change allows the user to specify kind='stable' thus clarifying
the intent.
Do not make temporary copies for in-place accumulation
------------------------------------------------------
When ufuncs perform accumulation they no longer make temporary copies because
of the overlap between input an output, that is, the next element accumulated
is added before the accumulated result is stored in its place, hence the
overlap is safe. Avoiding the copy results in faster execution.
``linalg.matrix_power`` can now handle stacks of matrices
---------------------------------------------------------
Like other functions in ``linalg``, ``matrix_power`` can now deal with arrays
of dimension larger than 2, which are treated as stacks of matrices. As part
of the change, to further improve consistency, the name of the first argument
has been changed to ``a`` (from ``M``), and the exceptions for non-square
matrices have been changed to ``LinAlgError`` (from ``ValueError``).
Increased performance in ``random.permutation`` for multidimensional arrays
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
``permutation`` uses the fast path in ``random.shuffle`` for all input
array dimensions. Previously the fast path was only used for 1-d arrays.
Generalized ufuncs now accept ``axes``, ``axis`` and ``keepdims`` arguments
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
One can control over which axes a generalized ufunc operates by passing in an
``axes`` argument, a list of tuples with indices of particular axes. For
instance, for a signature of ``(i,j),(j,k)->(i,k)`` appropriate for matrix
multiplication, the base elements are two-dimensional matrices and these are
taken to be stored in the two last axes of each argument. The corresponding
axes keyword would be ``[(-2, -1), (-2, -1), (-2, -1)]``. If one wanted to
use leading dimensions instead, one would pass in ``[(0, 1), (0, 1), (0, 1)]``.
For simplicity, for generalized ufuncs that operate on 1-dimensional arrays
(vectors), a single integer is accepted instead of a single-element tuple, and
for generalized ufuncs for which all outputs are scalars, the (empty) output
tuples can be omitted. Hence, for a signature of ``(i),(i)->()`` appropriate
for an inner product, one could pass in ``axes=[0, 0]`` to indicate that the
vectors are stored in the first dimensions of the two inputs arguments.
As a short-cut for generalized ufuncs that are similar to reductions, i.e.,
that act on a single, shared core dimension such as the inner product example
above, one can pass an ``axis`` argument. This is equivalent to passing in
``axes`` with identical entries for all arguments with that core dimension
(e.g., for the example above, ``axes=[(axis,), (axis,)]``).
Furthermore, like for reductions, for generalized ufuncs that have inputs that
all have the same number of core dimensions and outputs with no core dimension,
one can pass in ``keepdims`` to leave a dimension with size 1 in the outputs,
thus allowing proper broadcasting against the original inputs. The location of
the extra dimension can be controlled with ``axes``. For instance, for the
inner-product example, ``keepdims=True, axes=[-2, -2, -2]`` would act on the
inner-product example, ``keepdims=True, axis=-2`` would act on the
one-but-last dimension of the input arguments, and leave a size 1 dimension in
that place in the output.
float128 values now print correctly on ppc systems
--------------------------------------------------
Previously printing float128 values was buggy on ppc, since the special
double-double floating-point-format on these systems was not accounted for.
float128s now print with correct rounding and uniqueness.
Warning to ppc users: You should upgrade glibc if it is version <=2.23,
especially if using float128. On ppc, glibc's malloc in these version often
misaligns allocated memory which can crash numpy when using float128 values.
New ``np.take_along_axis`` and ``np.put_along_axis`` functions
--------------------------------------------------------------
When used on multidimensional arrays, ``argsort``, ``argmin``, ``argmax``, and
``argpartition`` return arrays that are difficult to use as indices.
``take_along_axis`` provides an easy way to use these indices to lookup values
within an array, so that::
np.take_along_axis(a, np.argsort(a, axis=axis), axis=axis)
is the same as::
np.sort(a, axis=axis)
``np.put_along_axis`` acts as the dual operation for writing to these indices
within an array.

==========================
This is a bugfix release for bugs reported following the 1.14.4 release. The
most significant fixes are:
* fixes for compilation errors on alpine and NetBSD
The Python versions supported in this release are 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6. The Python

```
### 1.14.4
```
==========================
This is a bugfix release for bugs reported following the 1.14.3 release. The
most significant fixes are:
* fixes for compiler instruction reordering that resulted in NaN's not being
properly propagated in `np.max` and `np.min`,
* fixes for bus faults on SPARC and older ARM due to incorrect alignment
checks.
There are also improvements to printing of long doubles on PPC platforms. All
is not yet perfect on that platform, the whitespace padding is still incorrect
and is to be fixed in numpy 1.15, consequently NumPy still fails some
printing-related (and other) unit tests on ppc systems. However, the printed
values are now correct.
Note that NumPy will error on import if it detects incorrect float32 `dot`
results. This problem has been seen on the Mac when working in the Anaconda
enviroment and is due to a subtle interaction between MKL and PyQt5. It is not
strictly a NumPy problem, but it is best that users be aware of it. See the
gh-8577 NumPy issue for more information.
The Python versions supported in this release are 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6. The Python
3.6 wheels available from PIP are built with Python 3.6.2 and should be
compatible with all previous versions of Python 3.6. The source releases were
cythonized with Cython 0.28.2 and should work for the upcoming Python 3.7.

### 1.14.1
```
==========================
This is a bugfix release for some problems reported following the 1.14.0 release. The major
problems fixed are the following.
* Problems with the new array printing, particularly the printing of complex
values, Please report any additional problems that may turn up.
* Problems with ``np.einsum`` due to the new ``optimized=True`` default. Some
fixes for optimization have been applied and ``optimize=False`` is now the
default.
* The sort order in ``np.unique`` when ``axis=<some-number>`` will now always
be lexicographic in the subarray elements. In previous NumPy versions there
was an optimization that could result in sorting the subarrays as unsigned
byte strings.
* The change in 1.14.0 that multi-field indexing of structured arrays returns a
view instead of a copy has been reverted but remains on track for NumPy 1.15.
Affected users should read the 1.14.1 Numpy User Guide section
"basics/structured arrays/accessing multiple fields" for advice on how to
manage this transition.
The Python versions supported in this release are 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6. The Python
3.6 wheels available from PIP are built with Python 3.6.2 and should be

### 1.14.0
```
==========================
Numpy 1.14.0 is the result of seven months of work and contains a large number
of bug fixes and new features, along with several changes with potential
compatibility issues. The major change that users will notice are the
stylistic changes in the way numpy arrays and scalars are printed, a change
that will affect doctests. See below for details on how to preserve the
old style printing when needed.
A major decision affecting future development concerns the schedule for
dropping Python 2.7 support in the runup to 2020. The decision has been made to
support 2.7 for all releases made in 2018, with the last release being
designated a long term release with support for bug fixes extending through
2019. In 2019 support for 2.7 will be dropped in all new releases. More details
can be found in `NEP 12`_.
This release supports Python 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6.
.. _`NEP 12`: http://www.numpy.org/neps/nep-0014-dropping-python2.7-proposal.html
Highlights
==========
* The `np.einsum` function uses BLAS when possible
* ``genfromtxt``, ``loadtxt``, ``fromregex`` and ``savetxt`` can now handle
files with arbitrary Python supported encoding.
* Major improvements to printing of NumPy arrays and scalars.
New functions
=============
* ``parametrize``: decorator added to numpy.testing
* ``chebinterpolate``: Interpolate function at Chebyshev points.
* ``format_float_positional`` and ``format_float_scientific`` : format
floating-point scalars unambiguously with control of rounding and padding.
* ``PyArray_ResolveWritebackIfCopy`` and ``PyArray_SetWritebackIfCopyBase``,
new C-API functions useful in achieving PyPy compatibity.
Deprecations
============
* Using ``np.bool_`` objects in place of integers is deprecated. Previously
``operator.index(np.bool_)`` was legal and allowed constructs such as
``[1, 2, 3][np.True_]``. That was misleading, as it behaved differently from
``np.array([1, 2, 3])[np.True_]``.
* Truth testing of an empty array is deprecated. To check if an array is not
empty, use ``array.size > 0``.
* Calling ``np.bincount`` with ``minlength=None`` is deprecated.
``minlength=0`` should be used instead.
* Calling ``np.fromstring`` with the default value of the ``sep`` argument is
deprecated. When that argument is not provided, a broken version of
``np.frombuffer`` is used that silently accepts unicode strings and -- after
encoding them as either utf-8 (python 3) or the default encoding
(python 2) -- treats them as binary data. If reading binary data is
desired, ``np.frombuffer`` should be used directly.
* The ``style`` option of array2string is deprecated in non-legacy printing mode.
* ``PyArray_SetUpdateIfCopyBase`` has been deprecated. For NumPy versions >= 1.14
use ``PyArray_SetWritebackIfCopyBase`` instead, see `C API changes` below for
more details.
* The use of ``UPDATEIFCOPY`` arrays is deprecated, see `C API changes` below
for details. We will not be dropping support for those arrays, but they are
not compatible with PyPy.
Future Changes
==============
* ``np.issubdtype`` will stop downcasting dtype-like arguments.
It might be expected that ``issubdtype(np.float32, 'float64')`` and
``issubdtype(np.float32, np.float64)`` mean the same thing - however, there
was an undocumented special case that translated the former into
``issubdtype(np.float32, np.floating)``, giving the surprising result of True.
This translation now gives a warning that explains what translation is
occurring. In the future, the translation will be disabled, and the first
example will be made equivalent to the second.
* ``np.linalg.lstsq`` default for ``rcond`` will be changed. The ``rcond``
parameter to ``np.linalg.lstsq`` will change its default to machine precision
times the largest of the input array dimensions. A FutureWarning is issued
when ``rcond`` is not passed explicitly.
* ``a.flat.__array__()`` will return a writeable copy of ``a`` when ``a`` is
non-contiguous. Previously it returned an UPDATEIFCOPY array when ``a`` was
writeable. Currently it returns a non-writeable copy. See gh-7054 for a
discussion of the issue.
* Unstructured void array's ``.item`` method will return a bytes object. In the
future, calling ``.item()`` on arrays or scalars of ``np.void`` datatype will
return a ``bytes`` object instead of a buffer or int array, the same as
returned by ``bytes(void_scalar)``. This may affect code which assumed the
return value was mutable, which will no longer be the case. A
``FutureWarning`` is now issued when this would occur.
Compatibility notes
===================
The mask of a masked array view is also a view rather than a copy
-----------------------------------------------------------------
There was a FutureWarning about this change in NumPy 1.11.x. In short, it is
now the case that, when changing a view of a masked array, changes to the mask
are propagated to the original. That was not previously the case. This change
affects slices in particular. Note that this does not yet work properly if the
mask of the original array is ``nomask`` and the mask of the view is changed.
See gh-5580 for an extended discussion. The original behavior of having a copy
of the mask can be obtained by calling the ``unshare_mask`` method of the view.
``np.ma.masked`` is no longer writeable
---------------------------------------
Attempts to mutate the ``masked`` constant now error, as the underlying arrays
are marked readonly. In the past, it was possible to get away with::
emulating a function that sometimes returns np.ma.masked
val = random.choice([np.ma.masked, 10])
var_arr = np.asarray(val)
val_arr += 1 now errors, previously changed np.ma.masked.data
``np.ma`` functions producing ``fill_value`` s have changed
-----------------------------------------------------------
Previously, ``np.ma.default_fill_value`` would return a 0d array, but
``np.ma.minimum_fill_value`` and ``np.ma.maximum_fill_value`` would return a
tuple of the fields. Instead, all three methods return a structured ``np.void``
object, which is what you would already find in the ``.fill_value`` attribute.
Additionally, the dtype guessing now matches that of ``np.array`` - so when
passing a python scalar ``x``, ``maximum_fill_value(x)`` is always the same as
``maximum_fill_value(np.array(x))``. Previously ``x = long(1)`` on Python 2
violated this assumption.
``a.flat.__array__()`` returns non-writeable arrays when ``a`` is non-contiguous
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The intent is that the UPDATEIFCOPY array previously returned when ``a`` was
non-contiguous will be replaced by a writeable copy in the future. This
temporary measure is aimed to notify folks who expect the underlying array be
modified in this situation that that will no longer be the case. The most
likely places for this to be noticed is when expressions of the form
``np.asarray(a.flat)`` are used, or when ``a.flat`` is passed as the out
parameter to a ufunc.
``np.tensordot`` now returns zero array when contracting over 0-length dimension
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Previously ``np.tensordot`` raised a ValueError when contracting over 0-length
dimension. Now it returns a zero array, which is consistent with the behaviour
of ``np.dot`` and ``np.einsum``.
``numpy.testing`` reorganized
-----------------------------
This is not expected to cause problems, but possibly something has been left
out. If you experience an unexpected import problem using ``numpy.testing``
let us know.
``np.asfarray`` no longer accepts non-dtypes through the ``dtype`` argument
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This previously would accept ``dtype=some_array``, with the implied semantics
of ``dtype=some_array.dtype``. This was undocumented, unique across the numpy
functions, and if used would likely correspond to a typo.
1D ``np.linalg.norm`` preserves float input types, even for arbitrary orders
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Previously, this would promote to ``float64`` when arbitrary orders were
passed, despite not doing so under the simple cases::
>>> f32 = np.float32([[1, 2]])
>>> np.linalg.norm(f32, 2.0, axis=-1).dtype
dtype('float32')
>>> np.linalg.norm(f32, 2.0001, axis=-1).dtype
dtype('float64') numpy 1.13
dtype('float32') numpy 1.14
This change affects only ``float32`` and ``float16`` arrays.
``count_nonzero(arr, axis=())`` now counts over no axes, not all axes
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Elsewhere, ``axis==()`` is always understood as "no axes", but
`count_nonzero` had a special case to treat this as "all axes". This was
inconsistent and surprising. The correct way to count over all axes has always
been to pass ``axis == None``.
``__init__.py`` files added to test directories
-----------------------------------------------
This is for pytest compatibility in the case of duplicate test file names in
the different directories. As a result, ``run_module_suite`` no longer works,
i.e., ``python <path-to-test-file>`` results in an error.
``.astype(bool)`` on unstructured void arrays now calls ``bool`` on each element
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Python 2, ``void_array.astype(bool)`` would always return an array of
``True``, unless the dtype is ``V0``. On Python 3, this operation would usually
crash. Going forwards, `astype` matches the behavior of ``bool(np.void)``,
considering a buffer of all zeros as false, and anything else as true.
Checks for ``V0`` can still be done with ``arr.dtype.itemsize == 0``.
``MaskedArray.squeeze`` never returns ``np.ma.masked``
------------------------------------------------------
``np.squeeze`` is documented as returning a view, but the masked variant would
sometimes return ``masked``, which is not a view. This has been fixed, so that
the result is always a view on the original masked array.
This breaks any code that used ``masked_arr.squeeze() is np.ma.masked``, but
fixes code that writes to the result of `.squeeze()`.
Renamed first parameter of ``can_cast`` from ``from`` to ``from_``
------------------------------------------------------------------
The previous parameter name ``from`` is a reserved keyword in Python, which made
it difficult to pass the argument by name. This has been fixed by renaming
the parameter to ``from_``.
``isnat`` raises ``TypeError`` when passed wrong type
------------------------------------------------------
The ufunc ``isnat`` used to raise a ``ValueError`` when it was not passed
variables of type ``datetime`` or ``timedelta``. This has been changed to
raising a ``TypeError``.
``dtype.__getitem__`` raises ``TypeError`` when passed wrong type
-----------------------------------------------------------------
When indexed with a float, the dtype object used to raise ``ValueError``.
User-defined types now need to implement ``__str__`` and ``__repr__``
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Previously, user-defined types could fall back to a default implementation of
``__str__`` and ``__repr__`` implemented in numpy, but this has now been
removed. Now user-defined types will fall back to the python default
``object.__str__`` and ``object.__repr__``.
Many changes to array printing, disableable with the new "legacy" printing mode
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ``str`` and ``repr`` of ndarrays and numpy scalars have been changed in
a variety of ways. These changes are likely to break downstream user's
doctests.
These new behaviors can be disabled to mostly reproduce numpy 1.13 behavior by
enabling the new 1.13 "legacy" printing mode. This is enabled by calling
``np.set_printoptions(legacy="1.13")``, or using the new ``legacy`` argument to
``np.array2string``, as ``np.array2string(arr, legacy='1.13')``.
In summary, the major changes are:
* For floating-point types:
* The ``repr`` of float arrays often omits a space previously printed
in the sign position. See the new ``sign`` option to ``np.set_printoptions``.
* Floating-point arrays and scalars use a new algorithm for decimal
representations, giving the shortest unique representation. This will
usually shorten ``float16`` fractional output, and sometimes ``float32`` and
``float128`` output. ``float64`` should be unaffected. See the new
``floatmode`` option to ``np.set_print

Please read the detailed descriptions below to see if you are affected. For testing, we have switched to pytest as a replacement for the no longer maintained nose framework. The old nose based interface remains for downstream projects who may still be using it. The Python versions supported by this release are 2.7, 3.4-3.7. The wheels are linked with OpenBLAS v0.3.0, which should fix some of the linalg problems reported for NumPy 1.14. Highlights ========== * NumPy has switched to pytest for testing. * A new `numpy.printoptions` context manager. * Many improvements to the histogram functions. * Support for unicode field names in python 2.7. * Improved support for PyPy. * Fixes and improvements to `numpy.einsum`. New functions ============= * `numpy.gcd` and `numpy.lcm`, to compute the greatest common divisor and least common multiple. * `numpy.ma.stack`, the `numpy.stack` array-joining function generalized to masked arrays. * `numpy.quantile` function, an interface to ``percentile`` without factors of 100 * `numpy.nanquantile` function, an interface to ``nanpercentile`` without factors of 100 * `numpy.printoptions`, a context manager that sets print options temporarily for the scope of the ``with`` block:: >>> with np.printoptions(precision=2): ... print(np.array([2.0]) / 3) [0.67] * `numpy.histogram_bin_edges`, a function to get the edges of the bins used by a histogram without needing to calculate the histogram. * C functions `npy_get_floatstatus_barrier` and `npy_clear_floatstatus_barrier` have been added to deal with compiler optimization changing the order of operations. See below for details. Deprecations ============ * Aliases of builtin `pickle` functions are deprecated, in favor of their unaliased ``pickle.<func>`` names: * `numpy.loads` * `numpy.core.numeric.load` * `numpy.core.numeric.loads` * `numpy.ma.loads`, `numpy.ma.dumps` * `numpy.ma.load`, `numpy.ma.dump` - these functions already failed on python 3 when called with a string. * Multidimensional indexing with anything but a tuple is deprecated. This means that the index list in ``ind = [slice(None), 0]; arr[ind]`` should be changed to a tuple, e.g., ``ind = [slice(None), 0]; arr[tuple(ind)]`` or ``arr[(slice(None), 0)]``. That change is necessary to avoid ambiguity in expressions such as ``arr[[[0, 1], [0, 1]]]``, currently interpreted as ``arr[array([0, 1]), array([0, 1])]``, that will be interpreted as ``arr[array([[0, 1], [0, 1]])]`` in the future. * Imports from the following sub-modules are deprecated, they will be removed at some future date. * `numpy.testing.utils` * `numpy.testing.decorators` * `numpy.testing.nosetester` * `numpy.testing.noseclasses` * `numpy.core.umath_tests` * Giving a generator to `numpy.sum` is now deprecated. This was undocumented behavior, but worked. Previously, it would calculate the sum of the generator expression. In the future, it might return a different result. Use ``np.sum(np.from_iter(generator))`` or the built-in Python ``sum`` instead. * Users of the C-API should call ``PyArrayResolveWriteBackIfCopy`` or ``PyArray_DiscardWritbackIfCopy`` on any array with the ``WRITEBACKIFCOPY`` flag set, before deallocating the array. A deprecation warning will be emitted if those calls are not used when needed. * Users of ``nditer`` should use the nditer object as a context manager anytime one of the iterator operands is writeable, so that numpy can manage writeback semantics, or should call ``it.close()``. A `RuntimeWarning` may be emitted otherwise in these cases. * The ``normed`` argument of ``np.histogram``, deprecated long ago in 1.6.0, now emits a ``DeprecationWarning``. Future Changes ============== * NumPy 1.16 will drop support for Python 3.4. * NumPy 1.17 will drop support for Python 2.7. Compatibility notes =================== Compiled testing modules renamed and made private ------------------------------------------------- The following compiled modules have been renamed and made private: * ``umath_tests`` -> ``_umath_tests`` * ``test_rational`` -> ``_rational_tests`` * ``multiarray_tests`` -> ``_multiarray_tests`` * ``struct_ufunc_test`` -> ``_struct_ufunc_tests`` * ``operand_flag_tests`` -> ``_operand_flag_tests`` The ``umath_tests`` module is still available for backwards compatibility, but will be removed in the future. The ``NpzFile`` returned by ``np.savez`` is now a ``collections.abc.Mapping`` ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This means it behaves like a readonly dictionary, and has a new ``.values()`` method and ``len()`` implementation. For python 3, this means that ``.iteritems()``, ``.iterkeys()`` have been deprecated, and ``.keys()`` and ``.items()`` now return views and not lists. This is consistent with how the builtin ``dict`` type changed between python 2 and python 3. Under certain conditions, ``nditer`` must be used in a context manager ---------------------------------------------------------------------- When using an `numpy.nditer` with the ``"writeonly"`` or ``"readwrite"`` flags, there are some circumstances where nditer doesn't actually give you a view of the writable array. Instead, it gives you a copy, and if you make changes to the copy, nditer later writes those changes back into your actual array. Currently, this writeback occurs when the array objects are garbage collected, which makes this API error-prone on CPython and entirely broken on PyPy. Therefore, ``nditer`` should now be used as a context manager whenever it is used with writeable arrays, e.g., ``with np.nditer(...) as it: ...``. You may also explicitly call ``it.close()`` for cases where a context manager is unusable, for instance in generator expressions. Numpy has switched to using pytest instead of nose for testing -------------------------------------------------------------- The last nose release was 1.3.7 in June, 2015, and development of that tool has ended, consequently NumPy has now switched to using pytest. The old decorators and nose tools that were previously used by some downstream projects remain available, but will not be maintained. The standard testing utilities, ``assert_almost_equal`` and such, are not be affected by this change except for the nose specific functions ``import_nose`` and ``raises``. Those functions are not used in numpy, but are kept for downstream compatibility. Numpy no longer monkey-patches ``ctypes`` with ``__array_interface__`` ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Previously numpy added ``__array_interface__`` attributes to all the integer types from ``ctypes``. ``np.ma.notmasked_contiguous`` and ``np.ma.flatnotmasked_contiguous`` always return lists ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the documented behavior, but previously the result could be any of slice, None, or list. All downstream users seem to check for the ``None`` result from ``flatnotmasked_contiguous`` and replace it with ``[]``. Those callers will continue to work as before. ``np.squeeze`` restores old behavior of objects that cannot handle an ``axis`` argument --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prior to version ``1.7.0``, `numpy.squeeze` did not have an ``axis`` argument and all empty axes were removed by default. The incorporation of an ``axis`` argument made it possible to selectively squeeze single or multiple empty axes, but the old API expectation was not respected because axes could still be selectively removed (silent success) from an object expecting all empty axes to be removed. That silent, selective removal of empty axes for objects expecting the old behavior has been fixed and the old behavior restored. unstructured void array's ``.item`` method now returns a bytes object --------------------------------------------------------------------- ``.item`` now returns a ``bytes`` object instead of a buffer or byte array. This may affect code which assumed the return value was mutable, which is no longer the case. ``copy.copy`` and ``copy.deepcopy`` no longer turn ``masked`` into an array --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Since ``np.ma.masked`` is a readonly scalar, copying should be a no-op. These functions now behave consistently with ``np.copy()``. Multifield Indexing of Structured Arrays will still return a copy ----------------------------------------------------------------- The change that multi-field indexing of structured arrays returns a view instead of a copy is pushed back to 1.16. A new method ``numpy.lib.recfunctions.repack_fields`` has been introduced to help mitigate the effects of this change, which can be used to write code compatible with both numpy 1.15 and 1.16. For more information on how to update code to account for this future change see the "accessing multiple fields" section of the `user guide <https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/user/basics.rec.html>`__. C API changes ============= New functions ``npy_get_floatstatus_barrier`` and ``npy_clear_floatstatus_barrier`` ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Functions ``npy_get_floatstatus_barrier`` and ``npy_clear_floatstatus_barrier`` have been added and should be used in place of the ``npy_get_floatstatus``and ``npy_clear_status`` functions. Optimizing compilers like GCC 8.1 and Clang were rearranging the order of operations when the previous functions were used in the ufunc SIMD functions, resulting in the floatstatus flags being checked before the operation whose status we wanted to check was run. See `10339 <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/10370>`__. Changes to ``PyArray_GetDTypeTransferFunction`` ----------------------------------------------- ``PyArray_GetDTypeTransferFunction`` now defaults to using user-defined ``copyswapn`` / ``copyswap`` for user-defined dtypes. If this causes a significant performance hit, consider implementing ``copyswapn`` to reflect the implementation of ``PyArray_GetStridedCopyFn``. See `10898 <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/10898>`__. New Features ============ ``np.gcd`` and ``np.lcm`` ufuncs added for integer and objects types -------------------------------------------------------------------- These compute the greatest common divisor, and lowest common multiple, respectively. These work on all the numpy integer types, as well as the builtin arbitrary-precision ``Decimal`` and ``long`` types. Support for cross-platform builds for iOS ----------------------------------------- The build system has been modified to add support for the ``_PYTHON_HOST_PLATFORM`` environment variable, used by ``distutils`` when compiling on one platform for another platform. This makes it possible to compile NumPy for iOS targets. This only enables you to compile NumPy for one specific platform at a time. Creating a full iOS-compatible NumPy package requires building for the 5 architectures supported by iOS (i386, x86_64, armv7, armv7s and arm64), and combining these 5 compiled builds products into a single "fat" binary. ``return_indices`` keyword added for ``np.intersect1d`` ------------------------------------------------------- New keyword ``return_indices`` returns the indices of the two input arrays that correspond to the common elements. ``np.quantile`` and ``np.nanquantile`` -------------------------------------- Like ``np.percentile`` and ``np.nanpercentile``, but takes quantiles in [0, 1] rather than percentiles in [0, 100]. ``np.percentile`` is now a thin wrapper around ``np.quantile`` with the extra step of dividing by 100. Build system ------------ Added experimental support for the 64-bit RISC-V architecture. Improvements ============ ``np.einsum`` updates --------------------- Syncs einsum path optimization tech between `numpy` and `opt_einsum`. In particular, the `greedy` path has received many enhancements by jcmgray. A full list of issues fixed are: * Arbitrary memory can be passed into the `greedy` path. Fixes gh-11210. * The greedy path has been updated to contain more dynamic programming ideas preventing a large number of duplicate (and expensive) calls that figure out the actual pair contraction that takes place. Now takes a few seconds on several hundred input tensors. Useful for matrix product state theories. * Reworks the broadcasting dot error catching found in gh-11218 gh-10352 to be a bit earlier in the process. * Enhances the `can_dot` functionality that previous missed an edge case (part of gh-11308). ``np.ufunc.reduce`` and related functions now accept an initial value --------------------------------------------------------------------- ``np.ufunc.reduce``, ``np.sum``, ``np.prod``, ``np.min`` and ``np.max`` all now accept an ``initial`` keyword argument that specifies the value to start the reduction with. ``np.flip`` can operate over multiple axes ------------------------------------------ ``np.flip`` now accepts None, or tuples of int, in its ``axis`` argument. If axis is None, it will flip over all the axes. ``histogram`` and ``histogramdd`` functions have moved to ``np.lib.histograms`` ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These were originally found in ``np.lib.function_base``. They are still available under their un-scoped ``np.histogram(dd)`` names, and to maintain compatibility, aliased at ``np.lib.function_base.histogram(dd)``. Code that does ``from np.lib.function_base import *`` will need to be updated with the new location, and should consider not using ``import *`` in future. ``histogram`` will accept NaN values when explicit bins are given ----------------------------------------------------------------- Previously it would fail when trying to compute a finite range for the data. Since the range is ignored anyway when the bins are given explicitly, this error was needless. Note that calling ``histogram`` on NaN values continues to raise the ``RuntimeWarning`` s typical of working with nan values, which can be silenced as usual with ``errstate``. ``histogram`` works on datetime types, when explicit bin edges are given ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dates, times, and timedeltas can now be histogrammed. The bin edges must be passed explicitly, and are not yet computed automatically. ``histogram`` "auto" estimator handles limited variance better -------------------------------------------------------------- No longer does an IQR of 0 result in ``n_bins=1``, rather the number of bins chosen is related to the data size in this situation. The edges retuned by `histogram`` and ``histogramdd`` now match the data float type ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When passed ``np.float16``, ``np.float32``, or ``np.longdouble`` data, the returned edges are now of the same dtype. Previously, ``histogram`` would only return the same type if explicit bins were given, and ``histogram`` would produce ``float64`` bins no matter what the inputs. ``histogramdd`` allows explicit ranges to be given in a subset of axes ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The ``range`` argument of `numpy.histogramdd` can now contain ``None`` values to indicate that the range for the corresponding axis should be computed from the data. Previously, this could not be specified on a per-axis basis. The normed arguments of ``histogramdd`` and ``histogram2d`` have been renamed ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- These arguments are now called ``density``, which is consistent with ``histogram``. The old argument continues to work, but the new name should be preferred. ``np.r_`` works with 0d arrays, and ``np.ma.mr_`` works with ``np.ma.masked`` ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0d arrays passed to the `r_` and `mr_` concatenation helpers are now treated as though they are arrays of length 1. Previously, passing these was an error. As a result, `numpy.ma.mr_` now works correctly on the ``masked`` constant. ``np.ptp`` accepts a ``keepdims`` argument, and extended axis tuples -------------------------------------------------------------------- ``np.ptp`` (peak-to-peak) can now work over multiple axes, just like ``np.max`` and ``np.min``. ``MaskedArray.astype`` now is identical to ``ndarray.astype`` ------------------------------------------------------------- This means it takes all the same arguments, making more code written for ndarray work for masked array too. Enable AVX2/AVX512 at compile time ---------------------------------- Change to simd.inc.src to allow use of AVX2 or AVX512 at compile time. Previously compilation for avx2 (or 512) with -march=native would still use the SSE code for the simd functions even when the rest of the code got AVX2. ``nan_to_num`` always returns scalars when receiving scalar or 0d inputs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Previously an array was returned for integer scalar inputs, which is inconsistent with the behavior for float inputs, and that of ufuncs in general. For all types of scalar or 0d input, the result is now a scalar. ``np.flatnonzero`` works on numpy-convertible types --------------------------------------------------- ``np.flatnonzero`` now uses ``np.ravel(a)`` instead of ``a.ravel()``, so it works for lists, tuples, etc. ``np.interp`` returns numpy scalars rather than builtin scalars --------------------------------------------------------------- Previously ``np.interp(0.5, [0, 1], [10, 20])`` would return a ``float``, but now it returns a ``np.float64`` object, which more closely matches the behavior of other functions. Additionally, the special case of ``np.interp(object_array_0d, ...)`` is no longer supported, as ``np.interp(object_array_nd)`` was never supported anyway. As a result of this change, the ``period`` argument can now be used on 0d arrays. Allow dtype field names to be unicode in Python 2 ------------------------------------------------- Previously ``np.dtype([(u'name', float)])`` would raise a ``TypeError`` in Python 2, as only bytestrings were allowed in field names. Now any unicode string field names will be encoded with the ``ascii`` codec, raising a ``UnicodeEncodeError`` upon failure. This change makes it easier to write Python 2/3 compatible code using ``from __future__ import unicode_literals``, which previously would cause string literal field names to raise a TypeError in Python 2. Comparison ufuncs accept ``dtype=object``, overriding the default ``bool`` -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This allows object arrays of symbolic types, which override ``==`` and other operators to return expressions, to be compared elementwise with ``np.equal(a, b, dtype=object)``. ``sort`` functions accept ``kind='stable'`` ------------------------------------------- Up until now, to perform a stable sort on the data, the user must do: >>> np.sort([5, 2, 6, 2, 1], kind='mergesort') [1, 2, 2, 5, 6] because merge sort is the only stable sorting algorithm available in NumPy. However, having kind='mergesort' does not make it explicit that the user wants to perform a stable sort thus harming the readability. This change allows the user to specify kind='stable' thus clarifying the intent. Do not make temporary copies for in-place accumulation ------------------------------------------------------ When ufuncs perform accumulation they no longer make temporary copies because of the overlap between input an output, that is, the next element accumulated is added before the accumulated result is stored in its place, hence the overlap is safe. Avoiding the copy results in faster execution. ``linalg.matrix_power`` can now handle stacks of matrices --------------------------------------------------------- Like other functions in ``linalg``, ``matrix_power`` can now deal with arrays of dimension larger than 2, which are treated as stacks of matrices. As part of the change, to further improve consistency, the name of the first argument has been changed to ``a`` (from ``M``), and the exceptions for non-square matrices have been changed to ``LinAlgError`` (from ``ValueError``). Increased performance in ``random.permutation`` for multidimensional arrays --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ``permutation`` uses the fast path in ``random.shuffle`` for all input array dimensions. Previously the fast path was only used for 1-d arrays. Generalized ufuncs now accept ``axes``, ``axis`` and ``keepdims`` arguments --------------------------------------------------------------------------- One can control over which axes a generalized ufunc operates by passing in an ``axes`` argument, a list of tuples with indices of particular axes. For instance, for a signature of ``(i,j),(j,k)->(i,k)`` appropriate for matrix multiplication, the base elements are two-dimensional matrices and these are taken to be stored in the two last axes of each argument. The corresponding axes keyword would be ``[(-2, -1), (-2, -1), (-2, -1)]``. If one wanted to use leading dimensions instead, one would pass in ``[(0, 1), (0, 1), (0, 1)]``. For simplicity, for generalized ufuncs that operate on 1-dimensional arrays (vectors), a single integer is accepted instead of a single-element tuple, and for generalized ufuncs for which all outputs are scalars, the (empty) output tuples can be omitted. Hence, for a signature of ``(i),(i)->()`` appropriate for an inner product, one could pass in ``axes=[0, 0]`` to indicate that the vectors are stored in the first dimensions of the two inputs arguments. As a short-cut for generalized ufuncs that are similar to reductions, i.e., that act on a single, shared core dimension such as the inner product example above, one can pass an ``axis`` argument. This is equivalent to passing in ``axes`` with identical entries for all arguments with that core dimension (e.g., for the example above, ``axes=[(axis,), (axis,)]``). Furthermore, like for reductions, for generalized ufuncs that have inputs that all have the same number of core dimensions and outputs with no core dimension, one can pass in ``keepdims`` to leave a dimension with size 1 in the outputs, thus allowing proper broadcasting against the original inputs. The location of the extra dimension can be controlled with ``axes``. For instance, for the inner-product example, ``keepdims=True, axes=[-2, -2, -2]`` would act on the inner-product example, ``keepdims=True, axis=-2`` would act on the one-but-last dimension of the input arguments, and leave a size 1 dimension in that place in the output. float128 values now print correctly on ppc systems -------------------------------------------------- Previously printing float128 values was buggy on ppc, since the special double-double floating-point-format on these systems was not accounted for. float128s now print with correct rounding and uniqueness. Warning to ppc users: You should upgrade glibc if it is version <=2.23, especially if using float128. On ppc, glibc's malloc in these version often misaligns allocated memory which can crash numpy when using float128 values. New ``np.take_along_axis`` and ``np.put_along_axis`` functions -------------------------------------------------------------- When used on multidimensional arrays, ``argsort``, ``argmin``, ``argmax``, and ``argpartition`` return arrays that are difficult to use as indices. ``take_along_axis`` provides an easy way to use these indices to lookup values within an array, so that:: np.take_along_axis(a, np.argsort(a, axis=axis), axis=axis) is the same as:: np.sort(a, axis=axis) ``np.put_along_axis`` acts as the dual operation for writing to these indices within an array. ========================= ``` ### 1.14.6 ``` ========================== This is a bugfix release for bugs reported following the 1.14.5 release. The most significant fixes are: * Fix for behavior change in ``ma.masked_values(shrink=True)`` * Fix the new cached allocations machinery to be thread safe. The Python versions supported in this release are 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.7. The Python 3.6 wheels on PyPI should be compatible with all Python 3.6 versions.

The most significant fixes are: * fixes for compiler instruction reordering that resulted in NaN's not being properly propagated in `np.max` and `np.min`, * fixes for bus faults on SPARC and older ARM due to incorrect alignment checks. There are also improvements to printing of long doubles on PPC platforms. All is not yet perfect on that platform, the whitespace padding is still incorrect and is to be fixed in numpy 1.15, consequently NumPy still fails some printing-related (and other) unit tests on ppc systems. However, the printed values are now correct. Note that NumPy will error on import if it detects incorrect float32 `dot` results. This problem has been seen on the Mac when working in the Anaconda enviroment and is due to a subtle interaction between MKL and PyQt5. It is not strictly a NumPy problem, but it is best that users be aware of it. See the gh-8577 NumPy issue for more information. The Python versions supported in this release are 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6.

The major problems fixed are the following. * Problems with the new array printing, particularly the printing of complex values, Please report any additional problems that may turn up. * Problems with ``np.einsum`` due to the new ``optimized=True`` default. Some fixes for optimization have been applied and ``optimize=False`` is now the default. * The sort order in ``np.unique`` when ``axis=<some-number>`` will now always be lexicographic in the subarray elements. In previous NumPy versions there was an optimization that could result in sorting the subarrays as unsigned byte strings. * The change in 1.14.0 that multi-field indexing of structured arrays returns a view instead of a copy has been reverted but remains on track for NumPy 1.15. Affected users should read the 1.14.1 Numpy User Guide section "basics/structured arrays/accessing multiple fields" for advice on how to manage this transition. The Python versions supported in this release are 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6.

The major change that users will notice are the stylistic changes in the way numpy arrays and scalars are printed, a change that will affect doctests. See below for details on how to preserve the old style printing when needed. A major decision affecting future development concerns the schedule for dropping Python 2.7 support in the runup to 2020. The decision has been made to support 2.7 for all releases made in 2018, with the last release being designated a long term release with support for bug fixes extending through 2019. In 2019 support for 2.7 will be dropped in all new releases. More details can be found in `NEP 12`_. This release supports Python 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6. .. _`NEP 12`: http://www.numpy.org/neps/nep-0014-dropping-python2.7-proposal.html Highlights ========== * The `np.einsum` function uses BLAS when possible * ``genfromtxt``, ``loadtxt``, ``fromregex`` and ``savetxt`` can now handle files with arbitrary Python supported encoding. * Major improvements to printing of NumPy arrays and scalars. New functions ============= * ``parametrize``: decorator added to numpy.testing * ``chebinterpolate``: Interpolate function at Chebyshev points. * ``format_float_positional`` and ``format_float_scientific`` : format floating-point scalars unambiguously with control of rounding and padding. * ``PyArray_ResolveWritebackIfCopy`` and ``PyArray_SetWritebackIfCopyBase``, new C-API functions useful in achieving PyPy compatibity. Deprecations ============ * Using ``np.bool_`` objects in place of integers is deprecated. Previously ``operator.index(np.bool_)`` was legal and allowed constructs such as ``[1, 2, 3][np.True_]``. That was misleading, as it behaved differently from ``np.array([1, 2, 3])[np.True_]``. * Truth testing of an empty array is deprecated. To check if an array is not empty, use ``array.size > 0``. * Calling ``np.bincount`` with ``minlength=None`` is deprecated. ``minlength=0`` should be used instead. * Calling ``np.fromstring`` with the default value of the ``sep`` argument is deprecated. When that argument is not provided, a broken version of ``np.frombuffer`` is used that silently accepts unicode strings and -- after encoding them as either utf-8 (python 3) or the default encoding (python 2) -- treats them as binary data. If reading binary data is desired, ``np.frombuffer`` should be used directly. * The ``style`` option of array2string is deprecated in non-legacy printing mode. * ``PyArray_SetUpdateIfCopyBase`` has been deprecated. For NumPy versions >= 1.14 use ``PyArray_SetWritebackIfCopyBase`` instead, see `C API changes` below for more details. * The use of ``UPDATEIFCOPY`` arrays is deprecated, see `C API changes` below for details. We will not be dropping support for those arrays, but they are not compatible with PyPy. Future Changes ============== * ``np.issubdtype`` will stop downcasting dtype-like arguments. It might be expected that ``issubdtype(np.float32, 'float64')`` and ``issubdtype(np.float32, np.float64)`` mean the same thing - however, there was an undocumented special case that translated the former into ``issubdtype(np.float32, np.floating)``, giving the surprising result of True. This translation now gives a warning that explains what translation is occurring. In the future, the translation will be disabled, and the first example will be made equivalent to the second. * ``np.linalg.lstsq`` default for ``rcond`` will be changed. The ``rcond`` parameter to ``np.linalg.lstsq`` will change its default to machine precision times the largest of the input array dimensions. A FutureWarning is issued when ``rcond`` is not passed explicitly. * ``a.flat.__array__()`` will return a writeable copy of ``a`` when ``a`` is non-contiguous. Previously it returned an UPDATEIFCOPY array when ``a`` was writeable. Currently it returns a non-writeable copy. See gh-7054 for a discussion of the issue. * Unstructured void array's ``.item`` method will return a bytes object. In the future, calling ``.item()`` on arrays or scalars of ``np.void`` datatype will return a ``bytes`` object instead of a buffer or int array, the same as returned by ``bytes(void_scalar)``. This may affect code which assumed the return value was mutable, which will no longer be the case. A ``FutureWarning`` is now issued when this would occur. Compatibility notes =================== The mask of a masked array view is also a view rather than a copy ----------------------------------------------------------------- There was a FutureWarning about this change in NumPy 1.11.x. In short, it is now the case that, when changing a view of a masked array, changes to the mask are propagated to the original. That was not previously the case. This change affects slices in particular. Note that this does not yet work properly if the mask of the original array is ``nomask`` and the mask of the view is changed. See gh-5580 for an extended discussion. The original behavior of having a copy of the mask can be obtained by calling the ``unshare_mask`` method of the view. ``np.ma.masked`` is no longer writeable --------------------------------------- Attempts to mutate the ``masked`` constant now error, as the underlying arrays are marked readonly. In the past, it was possible to get away with:: emulating a function that sometimes returns np.ma.masked val = random.choice([np.ma.masked, 10]) var_arr = np.asarray(val) val_arr += 1 now errors, previously changed np.ma.masked.data ``np.ma`` functions producing ``fill_value`` s have changed ----------------------------------------------------------- Previously, ``np.ma.default_fill_value`` would return a 0d array, but ``np.ma.minimum_fill_value`` and ``np.ma.maximum_fill_value`` would return a tuple of the fields. Instead, all three methods return a structured ``np.void`` object, which is what you would already find in the ``.fill_value`` attribute. Additionally, the dtype guessing now matches that of ``np.array`` - so when passing a python scalar ``x``, ``maximum_fill_value(x)`` is always the same as ``maximum_fill_value(np.array(x))``. Previously ``x = long(1)`` on Python 2 violated this assumption. ``a.flat.__array__()`` returns non-writeable arrays when ``a`` is non-contiguous -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The intent is that the UPDATEIFCOPY array previously returned when ``a`` was non-contiguous will be replaced by a writeable copy in the future. This temporary measure is aimed to notify folks who expect the underlying array be modified in this situation that that will no longer be the case. The most likely places for this to be noticed is when expressions of the form ``np.asarray(a.flat)`` are used, or when ``a.flat`` is passed as the out parameter to a ufunc. ``np.tensordot`` now returns zero array when contracting over 0-length dimension -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Previously ``np.tensordot`` raised a ValueError when contracting over 0-length dimension. Now it returns a zero array, which is consistent with the behaviour of ``np.dot`` and ``np.einsum``. ``numpy.testing`` reorganized ----------------------------- This is not expected to cause problems, but possibly something has been left out. If you experience an unexpected import problem using ``numpy.testing`` let us know. ``np.asfarray`` no longer accepts non-dtypes through the ``dtype`` argument --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This previously would accept ``dtype=some_array``, with the implied semantics of ``dtype=some_array.dtype``. This was undocumented, unique across the numpy functions, and if used would likely correspond to a typo. 1D ``np.linalg.norm`` preserves float input types, even for arbitrary orders ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Previously, this would promote to ``float64`` when arbitrary orders were passed, despite not doing so under the simple cases:: >>> f32 = np.float32([[1, 2]]) >>> np.linalg.norm(f32, 2.0, axis=-1).dtype dtype('float32') >>> np.linalg.norm(f32, 2.0001, axis=-1).dtype dtype('float64') numpy 1.13 dtype('float32') numpy 1.14 This change affects only ``float32`` and ``float16`` arrays. ``count_nonzero(arr, axis=())`` now counts over no axes, not all axes --------------------------------------------------------------------- Elsewhere, ``axis==()`` is always understood as "no axes", but `count_nonzero` had a special case to treat this as "all axes". This was inconsistent and surprising. The correct way to count over all axes has always been to pass ``axis == None``. ``__init__.py`` files added to test directories ----------------------------------------------- This is for pytest compatibility in the case of duplicate test file names in the different directories. As a result, ``run_module_suite`` no longer works, i.e., ``python <path-to-test-file>`` results in an error. ``.astype(bool)`` on unstructured void arrays now calls ``bool`` on each element -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Python 2, ``void_array.astype(bool)`` would always return an array of ``True``, unless the dtype is ``V0``. On Python 3, this operation would usually crash. Going forwards, `astype` matches the behavior of ``bool(np.void)``, considering a buffer of all zeros as false, and anything else as true. Checks for ``V0`` can still be done with ``arr.dtype.itemsize == 0``. ``MaskedArray.squeeze`` never returns ``np.ma.masked`` ------------------------------------------------------ ``np.squeeze`` is documented as returning a view, but the masked variant would sometimes return ``masked``, which is not a view. This has been fixed, so that the result is always a view on the original masked array. This breaks any code that used ``masked_arr.squeeze() is np.ma.masked``, but fixes code that writes to the result of `.squeeze()`. Renamed first parameter of ``can_cast`` from ``from`` to ``from_`` ------------------------------------------------------------------ The previous parameter name ``from`` is a reserved keyword in Python, which made it difficult to pass the argument by name. This has been fixed by renaming the parameter to ``from_``. ``isnat`` raises ``TypeError`` when passed wrong type ------------------------------------------------------ The ufunc ``isnat`` used to raise a ``ValueError`` when it was not passed variables of type ``datetime`` or ``timedelta``. This has been changed to raising a ``TypeError``. ``dtype.__getitem__`` raises ``TypeError`` when passed wrong type ----------------------------------------------------------------- When indexed with a float, the dtype object used to raise ``ValueError``. User-defined types now need to implement ``__str__`` and ``__repr__`` --------------------------------------------------------------------- Previously, user-defined types could fall back to a default implementation of ``__str__`` and ``__repr__`` implemented in numpy, but this has now been removed. Now user-defined types will fall back to the python default ``object.__str__`` and ``object.__repr__``. Many changes to array printing, disableable with the new "legacy" printing mode ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The ``str`` and ``repr`` of ndarrays and numpy scalars have been changed in a variety of ways. These changes are likely to break downstream user's doctests. These new behaviors can be disabled to mostly reproduce numpy 1.13 behavior by enabling the new 1.13 "legacy" printing mode. This is enabled by calling ``np.set_printoptions(legacy="1.13")``, or using the new ``legacy`` argument to ``np.array2string``, as ``np.array2string(arr, legacy='1.13')``. In summary, the major changes are: * For floating-point types: * The ``repr`` of float arrays often omits a space previously printed in the sign position. See the new ``sign`` option to ``np.set_printoptions``. * Floating-point arrays and scalars use a new algorithm for decimal representations, giving the shortest unique representation. This will usually shorten ``float16`` fractional output, and sometimes ``float32`` and ``float128`` output. ``float64`` should be unaffected. See the new ``floatmode`` option to ``np.set_print
