IPython errors for numpy array min/max methods

[muelaner]

I'm using the IPython console (v 8.12.0) in Anaconda and getting some error messages I don't understand when accessing basic methods of numpy arrays. If I use the same commands in IDLE then I don't get any errors. For example, I enter the following in IPython console and get this:

import numpy as np
a = np.linspace(1,36,36).reshape(12,3)
a.min()

Out: 1.0

Error:
