It is documented and it can be used safely. The manual, however, has currently no section on views that would explain these issues in depth. If you want to ensure no-copy, assign to shape: a.shape = (6,) > Another remark against reshape: > OWNDATA flag is False, even if b is a copy ! Apparently, reshape first copies to a contiguous array and then reshapes. This could be simplified. -- Pauli Virtanen _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list [email protected] http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
