[Numpy-discussion] avoiding loops when downsampling arrays

[Sturla Molden]

The last t1 on each lineis of course t2. Sorry for the typo. Hard to code on an ipad ;-)

>> Short answer: Create 16 view arrays, each with a stride of 4 in both dimensions. Test them against the conditions and combine the tests with an |= operator. Thus you replace the nested loop with one that has only 16 iterations. Or reshape to 3 dimensions, the last with length 4, and you can do the same with only four view arrays.
