Cross-posting a question I asked on SO (http://stackoverflow.com/q/15527666/152439):
Given an array d = np.random.randn(100) and an index array i = np.random.random_integers(low=3, high=d.size - 5, size=20) how can I efficiently create a 2d array r with r.shape = (20, 8) such that for all j=0..19, r[j] = d[i[j]-3:i[j]+5] In my case, the arrays are quite large (~200000 instead of 100 and 20), so something quick would be useful. Cheers, Andreas. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
