Python "max" and "min" have an interesting and _useful_ behavior when
applied to numpy scalars and Python numbers. Here is a piece of
pseudo-code:
def max(a, b):
if int(b) > int(a):
return b
else:
return a
The larger object is returned unchanged. If the two objects are equal,
return the first unchanged.
Is the behavior of "max", "min", "<", "<=", etc. for numpy scalar objects
documented somewhere?
