Given how well you are summing up the discussion on http://www.scipy.org/MatrixIndexing , I suspect it is already in the list of proposal. > > I also don't like loosing the information that you are > > doing linear algebra. > Hmmm. Is it a given that asking for ``a[i]`` is "doing > linear algebra"? Is ``a[i:i+1,:]`` so bad if you want > a matrix? Very, very bad. This is completly unreadable. Actually to the beginner, this looks like a 2*N matrix, not a 1*N matrix. To me you are really replacing a problem by another. We should fix the problem, not replace it.
