Missing use cases for binops on array vs. scalar #364

Description

@crusaderky

After reading hh.scalars, I understand that array-api-tests currently never generates the use cases of a binop where one argument is an Array with float or complex dtype and the other argument is

  • a pure-python integer;
  • a scalar inf, -inf, or nan;
  • a scalar outside of the range [1/64, 64]

Unless I missed something and the tests for these cases are somewhere else?

Note that the [1/64, 64] range exclusively applies to float/complex. The code could use a clarification there as it is not obvious upon first read that integers ignore it.

e.g. pytest -k minimum returns this:

array_api_tests/test_has_names.py::test_has_names[elementwise-minimum] PASSED                                                                                    [ 20%]
array_api_tests/test_operators_and_elementwise_functions.py::test_minimum PASSED                                                                                 [ 40%]
array_api_tests/test_operators_and_elementwise_functions.py::test_binary_with_scalars_real[minimum] SKIPPED (requires ARRAY_API_TESTS_VERSION >= 2024.12)        [ 60%]
array_api_tests/test_signatures.py::test_func_signature[minimum] PASSED                                                                                          [ 80%]
array_api_tests/test_special_cases.py::test_binary[minimum(x1_i is NaN or x2_i is NaN) -> NaN] PASSED   

To my understanding

  • in test_binary_with_scalars_real, when one arg is Array[float64] or Array[float32], the other arg is always in the [1/64, 64] range;
  • test_special_cases::test_binary only tests arrays containing NaN, not scalar NaN;
  • none tests inf or arrays containing inf
