ENH: Using type hints for scipy functions
See original GitHub issueI have an idea about using python type hints for scipy functions and creating new type hints instead of built-in types. for example:
from typing import NewType, Union
array_like = NewType("array_like", Union[ndarray, list])

As an outsider, and having worked with types for most of my professional life, and having seen the effects of maintaining them in external repositories… I would say having them in the same repository is the most sensible approach.
It’s true that introducing types in a huge code base that does not have them is a huge effort, but this cost is payed only once, after that’s done, they are very easy to maintain, and they usually help to spot minor bugs related to corner cases handling.
@EverLookNeverSee generally speaking though I would be very interested in an effort to start getting type hints into SciPy.
