If `median` is used with `overwrite_input` option the input array will now only
be partially sorted instead of fully sorted.
+Fix to financial.npv
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The npv function had a bug. Contrary to what the documentation stated, it
+summed from indexes ``1`` to ``M`` instead of from ``0`` to ``M - 1``. The
+fix changes the returned value. The mirr function called the npv function,
+but worked around the problem, so that was also fixed and the return value
+of the mirr function remains unchanged.
