Description of changes
Apparently and hopefully, the only classes derived from
np.ndarray
aredistribution.Discrete
,distribution.Continuous
,contingency.Discrete
andDistMatrix
. The latter was already properly subclassed, so I did the same in the first three.DistMatrix
also implements__array_wrap__
; I haven't added it to the former three classes because it would change their behaviour and possible break some code without (much, if any) benefit.Includes
