This is one of two PRs I'm working on that start to "traitify" ndarray. This trait is like the
Ndarray
trait suggested by @bluss in #339, but is slightly broader: it's meant to encapsulate not just actualndarray
types, but anything that could act like a multidimensional array. This includes Vecs, slices, arrays, and (critically) scalars that implementScalarOperand
.The motivation for me was trying to design a set of methods expanded numerical methods, addressing #1462 (and others). My goal was to have these methods
num_traits
traits, i.e.,abs
forT: Signed
.I was able to accomplish 1-3 with existing infrastructure, but you can see in #1462 that I was struggling with (4). This trait would allow me to accomplish all of these tasks.
Feedback is greatly welcome. Keep an eye out for two more upcoming PRs:
ArrayLike
, to close #14632Ndarray
trait, following the design ofNdArray
trait #339Note: This PR uses #1440 so should be merged after that.
