Description
Appears that when NumPy's fix
function is given a scalar, it returns a 0-D array as the result. However, the documentation clearly shows it returning a scalar when given a scalar. Either this is a bug or the documentation needs to be updated. IMHO having a scalar returned when giving a scalar seems desirable. Example code and conda
environment details below.
Code sample:
In [1]: import numpy as np
In [2]: np.fix(3.14)
Out[2]: array(3.0)
In [3]: np.fix(3)
Out[3]: array(3.0)
In [4]: np.fix([2.1, 2.9, -2.1, -2.9])
Out[4]: array([ 2., 2., -2., -2.])
