This is documentation for an old release of NumPy (version 1.18). Read this page in the documentation of the latest stable release (version 2.2).
NumPy 1.18.4 Release Notes¶
This is that 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 improved help in the error message
emitted when numpy import fails due to a link to a new troubleshooting section
in the documentation that is now included.
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.
