Constructs (in CUDA not supported)

• Exception handling (try .. except, try .. finally)
• Context management (the with statement)

• The raise statement
• The assert statement

Numpy support (Support in CUDA)

• accessing ndarray attributes .shape, .strides, .ndim, .size, etc..
• scalar ufuncs that have equivalents in the math module; i.e. np.sin(x[0]), where x is a 1D array.
• indexing and slicing works.

Numpy support (Not Support in CUDA)

• array creation APIs.
• array methods.
• functions that returns a new array.
