[SciPy-dev] numpy changes generator behaviour

[Christopher Fonnesbeck]

I'm not sure this is intended, but it appears that numpy changes the  
behaviour of the new python 2.4 generators. Here is what is supposed  
to happen:

 >>> sum(x*x for x in range(10))
285

But if I import numpy, and try again I get:

 >>> from numpy import *
 >>> sum(x*x for x in range(10))
<generator object at 0x5ae90>

Why should it no longer sum?

C.
