python: converting an numpy array data type from int64 to int
numpy.ndarray.tolist will do it:
a.tolist()
If your data is a pandas series you can call their tolist wrapper with the same result.
@J.F. Sebastian's answer:
a.astype(numpy.int32)
Use the item() method for numpy.int64 object, as Mike T's answer in another similar question explained.
