#610: Let numpy.interp accept scalar values as first argument
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  Elby         |       Owner:  somebody
     Type:  enhancement  |      Status:  new     
 Priority:  normal       |   Milestone:  1.0.5   
Component:  numpy.lib    |     Version:  none    
 Severity:  normal       |    Keywords:          
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 The current version of numpy.interp does not accept a single value as
 first argument, so it is not possible to make a single interpolation :
 {{{
 >>> import numpy as n
 >>> n.__version__
 '1.0.5.dev4420'
 >>> xp = n.arange(10)
 >>> yp = 2.5 + xp**2 -xp
 >>> x = 3.2
 >>> n.interp(x, xp, yp)

 Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
 ValueError: object of too small depth for desired array
 }}}

 It would be a lot more nice to let x be a float, an int or another numpy
 scalar object, as the attached patch does.
