Another question is if non-propagating (N*C) ignored values would be useful. I'm guessing that for these it would be possible to have the expected behavior on assignment, while retaining commutativity, and they would also behave as expected in reductions. It's a somewhat different concept from np.ma, but I'm wondering if there would be real-world uses for tagging values with "this number is not really here, act as if it wasn't in the array". -- Pauli Virtanen _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
