No.  Any code sample?

My goal was to give python an interface to algorithms written in c++.  The
algs are generic, but to talk to python I have to choose concrete
containers.  I chose ublas::vector in hopes that would also be convenient
for c++.

I don't know what using PyArrayObject would imply, do you?
