[Numpy-discussion] Slicing/selection in multiple dimensions simultaneously

Hi Robert

I was wondering how one would implement this, since the ix_ function
has no knowledge of the dimensions of "a".

The best I could do was to allow

a[ix_[[2,3,6], :3, [3, 2]]

to work (see attached patch).

Cheers
