Good question. Just to note, I don't mind reverting/removing these. I was somewhat aware that the double ellipsis caused a lot scipy failures, but they seemed mostly in the tests with code like `arr[..., ...]` and I didn't check if it might be more trouble then gain. - Sebastian > > Chuck > > _______________________________________________ > NumPy-Discussion mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list [email protected] http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
