I'm stumped. I can't figure out how to extract from e.g. view = A[:, 3]
that the view starts at element 3 of A. I was planning to make a may_share_memory implementation based on the idea of swapping in a buffer of 0s, and using the shapes, strides, itemsize etc. to increment just the parts of the 0s buffer touched by the two ndarrays. If there are any 2s in the incremented buffer, it's because the two views overlapped. It's not the best algorithm for comparing tiny views of huge arrays, I was wondering if in my case it would have been quicker than the built-in method (I don't know how it works). I actually have another data structure around to pull out that shape and stride info, but it's a shame to use it, because then I can't use the algorithm to compare ndarrays in general (or at least ones that have been created by typical construction methods and slicing).
