Hi,
please take a look at this:

I think here should be a ValueError exception thrown rather than defaulting to the '-1'-axis. Comments ?
This is a bug. Hopefully I'll get it today.
Also this applies to (all?) other functions that have an 'axis' argument. And further I just found that putting "too many slicings" to an array also
gets silently ignored:
b.shape
(7, 128, 128, 128)
b[2,2,2,2,3]
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<input>", line 1, in ? IndexError: too many indices.
BUT:
b[2:3 , 2:3 , 2:3 , 2:3 , 2:3 , 2:3]
[[[[ 0.]]]]
I find this very confusing !! Is there any good reason not to have the "IndexError" exception in all cases ?
This is also a bug. Fixed in CVS now.
Thanks for the report!

Thanks so much - I got worried there for a moment ;-) Regards, Sebastian
