I have a question about assigning to masked arrays. a is a len ==3 masked array, with 2 unmasked elements. b is a len == 2 array. I want to put the elements of b into the unmasked elements of a. How do I do that?

In [598]: a Out[598]: masked_array(data = [1 -- 3], mask = [False True False], fill_value=999999)

In [599]: b Out[599]: array([7, 8])

I'd like an operation that gives me:

masked_array(data = [7 -- 8], mask = [False True False], fill_value=999999)

Seems like it shouldn't be that hard, but I can't figure it out. Any suggestions?

How about:

c = a.copy() c[~a.mask] = b
