Dear all,

I need to loop over a numpy array and then do the following search. The 
following is taking almost 60(s) for an array (npArray1 and npArray2 in the 
example below) with around 300K values.


for id in np.nditer(npArray1):

        newId=(np.where(npArray2==id))[0][0]


Is there anyway I can make the above faster? I need to run the script above on 
much bigger arrays (50M). Please note that my two numpy arrays in the lines 
above, npArray1 and npArray2  are not necessarily the same size, but they are 
both 1d.


Thanks a lot for your help,


I'm no numpy expert, but if you're using a loop my guess is that you're doing it wrong. I suggest your first port of call is the numpy docs if you haven't all ready been there, then the specific numpy mailing list or stackoverflow, as it seems very likely that this type of question has been asked before.
