[Numpy-discussion] size_t or npy_intp?

[Francesc Alted]

Hi,

I'm a bit confused on which datatype should I use when referring to NumPy 
ndarray lengths.  In one hand I'd use `size_t` that is the canonical way to 
refer to lengths of memory blocks.  In the other hand, `npy_intp` seems the 
standard data type used in NumPy for this.

Which one would you recommend to use in NumPy extensions?
