array.shape() gives TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable

[Charles Fox]

Hi gys -- I am looking at Numpy but getting this error when I try to
get array sizes. I'm using Ubuntu Edgy with standard repositories and
scipy. Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong or is it my install of
scipy?

$ python
Python 2.4.4c1 (#2, Oct 11 2006, 21:51:02)
[GCC 4.1.2 20060928 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.1-13ubuntu5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright" , "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>from numpy import *
>>a=array([[1,2],[3,4]])
>>a

array([[1, 2],
[3, 4]])

>>a.shape()

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable

>>>

thanks
charles

use
a.shape
instead.
