[Numpy-discussion] numpy.reshape() bug?

I am trying to "collapse" two dimensions of a 3-D array, using reshape: (Pdb) dims = np.shape(trace) (Pdb) dims Out[2]: (1000, 4, 3) (Pdb) newdims = (dims[0], sum(dims[1:])) (Pdb) newdims Out[2]: (1000, 7) However, reshape seems to think I am missing something: (Pdb) np.reshape(trace, newdims) *** ValueError: total size of new array must be unchanged Clearly the total size of the new array *is* unchanged.
