Re: [Numpy-discussion] Segfault when indexing on second or higher dimension with list or tuple

Hello all,

The following segfault bug was discovered in NumPy 0.9.7.2348 by someone at our Python workshop:

import numpy as N F = N.zeros((1,1)) F[:,[0]] = 0

The following also segfaults:

F[:,(0,)] = 0

Something seems to go wrong when one uses a tuple or a list to index into a NumPy array on the second or higher dimension, since the following code works:

The segfault was due to an error condition not being caught. This is now fixed, so now you get (a rather cryptic error). Now, to figure out why this code doesn't work.... -Travis
