Hello list,
I am trying to specify the indices of an array with a list and add a newaxis, but that combination doesn't seem to be allowed. Any reason why? Here's an example:
a = arange(3)
This works:
a[[0,2]][:,newaxis]
Out[445]:
array([[0],
[2]])
This is more elegant syntax (and, I thought, correct), but it doesn't work:
a[[0,2],newaxis]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
