Difference between frompyfunc and vectorize in numpy

Viewed 7008

What is the difference between vectorize and frompyfunc in numpy?

Both seem very similar. What is a typical use case for each of them?

Edit: As JoshAdel indicates, the class vectorize seems to be built upon frompyfunc. (see the source). It is still unclear to me whether frompyfunc may have any use case that is not covered by vectorize...
