@lirus7 Not sure at all sure. I remember there were some issues with this stuff (see the notes in the README) and what the actual target of the estimation was....

@FlorinAndrei are your variables discrete or continuous? I think I put a few notes in the README of https://github.com/mutualinfo/mutual_info ... that Differential Entropy can be negative and it is not...

I think this was just quote protection right? It seems to be everywhere? @HarisRasul12

I can repro this too but I land on the self.errwrite bit (I suspect it is OS dependent code path variations here). Breaking into the error I see that self.errwrite...

We have also noticed this which might be bad?  That is in proxies.py.

@anki-code @AstraLuma Another finding is that the error goes away with gc disabled. See the test.py below. In xonsh: ./test.py # fails ./test.py true # succeeds ``` $ cat test.py...

I think the pattern you are looking for is some kind of partial update via filters. You can hack things using `object.__setattr__(self, 'nn', ...)` but I suspect that is not...
