Mailman 3 indexing bug in numpy r2694 - NumPy-Discussion

28 Jun 2006

      ...
...
x = asmatrix(rand(3,2))
...
...
y = asmatrix(rand(3,1))
...
...
y
matrix([[ 0.77952062],
       [ 0.97110465],
       [ 0.77450218]])
...
...
idx = where(y > 0.5)[0]
...
...
idx
matrix([[0, 1, 2]])
...
...
x[idx,:]
matrix([[ 0.24837887,  0.52988253],
       [ 0.28661085,  0.43053076],
       [ 0.05360893,  0.22668509]])

So far everything works as it should. Now the problem:
...
...
y[idx,:]

exceptions.ValueError                                Traceback (most
recent call last)

/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/core/defmatrix.py in
__getitem__(self, index)
    120
    121     def __getitem__(self, index):
--> 122         out = N.ndarray.__getitem__(self, index)
    123         # Need to swap if slice is on first index
    124         retscal = False

/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/core/defmatrix.py in

    116             self.shape = (1,1)
    117         elif ndim == 1:
--> 118             self.shape = (1,self.shape[0])
    119         return
    120

ValueError: total size of new array must be unchanged

And, on a related note, shouldn't this be a column vector?
...
...
x[idx,0]
matrix([[ 0.24837887,  0.28661085,  0.05360893]])
