Near the beginning of file test_matrix.py from scipy are the lines import scipy.base reload(scipy.base) from scipy.base import * del sys.path[0]
Could someone please explain why the first two lines were included? A similar script I wrote works fine without them. Also, what is the purpose of the "del" line? (I understand the mechanics of what "del" does.) The scipy developers are skilled Python programmers, so I am trying to understand the idioms used in their codes. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
