- Loss of the sicarray type. SicVar instances have now two elements:
__sicname__ (the SIC variable name) and __sicdata__ (a numpy.ndarray). Previously __sicdata__ was a sicarray with itself a Numeric.array attribute.
- NumPy support: SIC variables (arrays and scalars) are now imported as numpy.ndarray,
using the same C-API function from Numeric that NumPy still supports.
- Adaptation of the adequates methods of the SicVar class to handle the unique
element of the numpy.ndarray scalars through [0] indexing (NumPy only provides
indexing for its scalars through [()] index).
- Attempting to define an image attribute which name is already used for a
native method or attribute of the numpy.ndarray's will not raise an error anymore but
will only warn the user.
- SicVar strings now support concatenation (+) and duplication (*).
- Automatic blank filling when assigning a Python string to a SicVar string
(Numeric provides this feature but NumPy does not: it requires the two strings
to have the same length).
- A SicVar subarray is now also a SicVar with the same __sicname__ attribute and with a
__sicdata__ sharing its data with the original array, and thus with the SIC variable
(previously a SicVar subarray was a Numeric.array). Such subarrays inherit the SicVar specific methods, such as string handling or write protection if any.
- Usefull functions such as get(), comm() or exa() are now
methods of the Sicfunctions class, and are visible through the sic
instance created during the process initialization.
- Creation of the sic(), greg(), define() and delete()
methods of the Sic functions class.
