Hi,
Is it possible to assign to a subarray with arbitrary index?
Suppose I have three arrays
a = arange(8) b = array([2, 3, 5]) c = arange(3)+100
I want a function f, such that calling f(a, b, c) would change a to
[0 1 100 101 4 102 6 7]
f = Numeric.put f(a, b, c) put used to be in Python, but it's been in C since some release 17.x.x, I think. I have a sinking feeling that I must have missed something (no interpreter here to check it works)... BTW, a week ago I noticed that I had reinvented the wheel in rewriting, in an uglier and less efficient form, Numeric.allclose (hope I got the name right). As far as I can see, it isn't listed in the manual. Did I miss it? All it would need is the docstring copying over. John
