## Title

    Proposed fix: [NumPy 2.4] int()/float() on a 1-element array now raises TypeError 'only 0-dimensional arrays can be converted to Python scalars'

## Body

    Recommended action: Extract the element explicitly before conversion (arr.item(), arr[0], or arr.squeeze() then int()); as a stopgap pin numpy<2.4 for third-party code you cannot patch.
    
    Fix: Use .item() (or index) before int()/float() [evidence: official_recommended_action]
    Applies when: Code you control that converts 1-element arrays to Python scalars
    Steps:
    1. Find int(x)/float(x) where x may be an ndarray with ndim>0
    2. Replace with int(x.item()) or int(x[0]) / x.squeeze()
    3. Run tests under numpy>=2.4
    Expected: No TypeError; same numeric value
    
    Option: Pin numpy<2.4 for unpatched third-party graders [evidence: documented_workaround]
    Applies when: Third-party code you cannot edit
    Steps:
    1. Add numpy<2.4 constraint to the environment
    Expected: Old deprecation-warning behavior
