[Numpy-discussion] As any array, really any array

[Luis Pedro Coelho]

Hello all,

I often find myself writing the following code:

    try:
        features = np.asanyarray(features)
    except:
        features = np.asanyarray(features, dtype=object)

I basically want to be able to use fany indexing on features and, in most 
cases, it will be a numpy floating point array. Otherwise, default to having it 
be an array of dtype=object.

Is there a more elegant way to do it with numpy?

Thank you,
