Space elements order through numpy

Hi,

I was doing a convergence test, feeding the elements of a numpy array as the parameter “order” in the space definition. I noticed that no matter the number I was giving, the convergence was as if order = 1. This is a simple example where I show the order before and after the space definition:

[code]import numpy as np
from ngsolve import *
from netgen.geom2d import unit_square
from netgen.geom2d import SplineGeometry

geo = SplineGeometry()
geo.AddRectangle( (0, 0), (1, 1), bcs = (“bottom”, “right”, “top”, “left”))
mesh = Mesh(unit_square.GenerateMesh(maxh=0.1))
mesh.Curve(1)
order_n = np.array([4])
print(order_n[0])
V = H1(mesh, order=order_n[0], dirichlet=“bottom|right|left|top”)
print(V.globalorder)[/code]

Is it a bug or is it supposed to be like this (of course writing order=int(order_n[0]) solved the problem)?

Thanks a lot

Hm yes, we expect an int python type here and numpy gives a numpy.int64… But asking for all the possible types would also be too much in the code… I think we have to stick here to convert the parameter to int.
