[Numpy-discussion] iterate over multiple arrays

[Olivier Delalleau]

It'll work, it is equivalent to the suggestion I made in my previous post
with the f_inplace wrapper function (and it has the same drawback that numpy
will allocate temporary memory, which wouldn't be the case if f was working
in-place directly, by implementing it as "arr *= 2").

Note that you don't need to write x[:] * 2, you can write x * 2 directly.
