NumPy 1.18.4 Release Notes¶
This is the last planned release in the 1.18.x series. It reverts the
bool("0") behavior introduced in 1.18.3 and fixes a bug in
Generator.integers. There is also a link to a new troubleshooting section
in the documentation included in the error message emitted when numpy import
fails.
The Python versions supported in this release are 3.5-3.8. Downstream developers should use Cython >= 0.29.15 for Python 3.8 support and OpenBLAS >= 3.7 to avoid errors on the Skylake architecture.
