Test explicitly that constants are Python scalars #14

Closed

Description

@pmeier

data-apis/array-api#169 clarified that the constants e, inf, nan, and pi should be Python scalars and not just behave like one. Our current tests

def test_e():
# Check that e acts as a scalar
E = full((1,), e, dtype=float64)
# We don't require any accuracy. This is just a smoke test to check that
# 'e' is actually the constant e.
assert all(less(abs(E - 2.71), one((1,), dtype=float64))), "e is not the constant e"

don't account for that.
