Hi I am having an issue with boolean slicing. it seems to work fine for reading a value, but I can use it to set a value:
import numpy b = numpy.array([[1,2],[3,4],[5,6],[7,8],[9,10]]) m = numpy.array([0,1,0,0,0], dtype=bool) print b[m] print b[m][0,0] b[m][0,0] = -1 print b[m][0,0] I think the boolean slicing is making a copy instead of a view. is there a way around this? My full problem is to modify a column of a rec array, if another column has a condition. ie, a neat way of doing for n in xrange(len(a)): if a[n]['name'] == "foo": a[n]['x'] += 1 i have been trying things like: a[a[n]['name'] == "foo"]['x'] += 1 but does not work. I am using Python version 2.7 (r27:82500, Sep 16 2010, 18:02:00) numpy 1:1.4.1-6.fc14 (fedora package) Thanks Sam _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
