[Numpy-discussion] FYI: New select-multiple-fields behavior

2009-02-11 Thread Travis E. Oliphant

Hi all,

As of r6358, I checked in the functionality to allow selection by 
multiple fields along with a couple of tests.

ary['field1', 'field3']  raises an error
ary[['field1', 'field3']] is the correct spelling and returns a copy of 
the data in those fields in a new array.

Hi Travis

 ary['field1', 'field3']  raises an error
 ary[['field1', 'field3']] is the correct spelling and returns a copy of
 the data in those fields in a new array.

Is there absolutely no way of returning the result as a view?

Stéfan

Not that I can think of --- it does match advanced indexing semantics to 
have it be a copy.
