This test is very occasionally failing on my machine in python 3. In python 3
ndarray.data
gives a memoryview object, and thestr
of a memoryview is just"<memory at [address of memoryview object]>"
, so the only reason the test usually works is because the first memoryview gets deallocated and then the second one gets allocated in exactly the same place.bytes
gives you the actual underlying data in both 2 and 3.
