Hi, What is the rationale for using False in 'mask' for elements that should be included?
http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/maskedarray.generic.html As opposed to using True for elements that should be included, which is what I was intuitively expecting when I started using the masked arrays. This "True convention" also happens to be the one used in Fortran, see e.g.: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gfortran/SUM.html So it's confusing why NumPy would chose a "False convention". Could it be, that NumPy views 'mask' as opacity? Then it would make sense to use True to make a value 'opaque'.
