About Array() error issue

E1： nameError name 'array' is not defined python

         from array import array

I tried importing array (from array import array), but it then fails saying that

TypeError: array() argument 1 must be a unicode character, not list

E2: TypeError: array() argument 1 must be a unicode character, not list

        from numpy import array

code:

import matplotlib
from numpy import array
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.scatter(datingDataMat[:,1],datingDataMat[:,2], 15.0*array(datingLabels), 15.0*array(datingLabels))
plt.show()
