[Numpy-discussion] shape is (3,4) or (3L,4L) ?

Are they all using the same platform ? I suspect you're seeing the (3L, 4L)
on windows 64 bits, correct ?

FWIW, the numpy provided in Canopy is straight up upstream numpy + few
patches not merged in releases yet, and any divergence from upstream would
be considered as a bug by the canopy packaging people (i.e. me :-) ).
