I'm in a similar position -- I don't have any use cases for IGNORED myself right now, so I'm just trying to guess from what I've seen people say. Just having where= around makes it at least possible, if cumbersome, to handle one of the big problems -- working with subsets of large datasets without having to make a copy. It's possible we should leave IGNORED support alone until people have more experience with where=, and can say what kind of convenience features would be useful. Or maybe we can get some experts to speak up... perhaps this will help: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.matplotlib.devel/10740 -- Nathaniel _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
