a = rand(3,3,3,3) b = rand(3,3) # this works: a[1,1,:,:] = slice(a,1,1,:,:)+b # this does not work: a[1,1,:,:] += b
This example does not look so bad, but once you use expressive variable names and more dimensions it quickly gets very nasty. Because of it, I am doing less vectorisation than I would prefer. I know there is a lot of discussion on slicing on the Julia issues list, so I did not want to post another issue there. Is this likely to be resolved in future releases? Are there elegant alternatives?
