[Numpy-discussion] make hstack and vstack promote 1-D argument to 2-D when necessary

[Dr. Phillip M. Feldman]

I opened ticket #1302 to make the following enhancement request:

I'd like to see hstack and vstack promote 1-D arguments to 2-D when this is
necessary to make the dimensions match.  In the following example, c_ works
as expected while hstack does not:

[~]|8> x
   <8>
array([[1, 2, 3],
       [4, 5, 6],
       [7, 8, 9]])
[~]|9> y
   <9> array([10, 11, 12])
[~]|10> c_[x,y]
   <10>
array([[ 1,  2,  3, 10],
       [ 4,  5,  6, 11],
       [ 7,  8,  9, 12]])
[~]|11> x
   <11>
array([[1, 2, 3],
       [4, 5, 6],
       [7, 8, 9]])
[~]|12> y
   <12> array([10, 11, 12])
[~]|13> hstack((x,y))
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ValueError                                Traceback (most recent call last)
