fix `scalar_to_array` return type

Opened this issue · 0 comments

"So we kind of need to figure something out here, because the reference Python implementation of scalar_to_array does not instantiate an array that matches the current frontend or backend.

It would probably be more robust to change scalar_to_array to take a type argument specifying which array class to use. The user would never call it directly, but functions like numpy.array would fill in the argument appropriately."
