Dot doesn't accept arrays

In [93]: a = rand(1,5)

In [94]: b = rand(5,1)

In [95]: A = pd.DataFrame(a)

In [96]: B = pd.DataFrame(b)

In [97]: a.dot(b)
Out[97]: array([[ 1.50425267]])

In [98]: A.dot(B)
Out[98]:

1.504253


In [99]: a.dot(B)
Out[99]: array([[ 1.50425267]])

In [100]: A.dot(b)

    726         return DataFrame(result, index=self.index, columns=other.columns)

AttributeError: 'numpy.ndarray' object has no attribute 'values'

I would guess replace rvals = other.values with

try:
    rvals = other.values
except AttributeError:
    pass

unless you specifically intended for this to fail?
