One could also consider julia> a=[1 2 3; 4 5 6]
2×3 Array{Int64,2}:
1 2 3
4 5 6
julia> convert(Array{Float64}, a)
2×3 Array{Float64,2}:
1.0 2.0 3.0
4.0 5.0 6.0as it actually converts the elements. Just an idea, not sure this is indeed better. |
|
I would say showing an actual conversion taking place is useful so +1 to above |
|
@martinholters your example is better, OK with me to change. |

@mzaffalon is this your first Julia PR? Welcome to Julia, if so! (Or a much-belated hello otherwise.) Thanks for adding docs. Do you need help making the update to the PR? |
|
@kshyatt something like this? If not, then I would need help with rebasing, but I guess the 8 hour time zone difference won't help... |
|
You could have squashed the two commits, but we can do so upon merge, too, so no worries. |
|
I thought I did squash it. |
|
@martinholters sorry to bother when 0.5 is about to be released: is there something I should do with this PR? Can it be merged? |
