Hi, I just noticed this and found it surprising:
In [8]: from numpy import ma In [9]: a = ma.array([1,2,3,4],mask=[False,False,True,False],fill_value=0) In [10]: a Out[10]: masked_array(data = [1 2 -- 4], mask = [False False True False], fill_value=0) In [11]: a[2] Out[11]: masked_array(data = --, mask = True, fill_value=1e+20) In [12]: np.__version__ Out[12]: '1.1.0' Is there a reason that the fill_value isn't inherited from the parent array?
