Using numpy to square value gives negative number

Question

I\'m trying to use numpy to element-wise square an array. I\'ve noticed that some of the values appear as negative numbers. The squared value isn\'t near the max int limit.

Answer 1

Actually, the result of your code is:

[1, 4, 2289813904]

But in case of squaring negative numbers you need to put the negative number in parenthesis:

>>> (-10) ** 2
