But for x = [1,2,3,4], how will x[y] work for all of the following values of y? y = slice.literal[0] y = slice.literal[1:2] y = slice.literal[0:1, ..., 3] NumPy's s_ "magic object" is a factory, returning objects of different types depending on the given input. If you want an actual slice.literal class, then you'll have to supply a way to convert it into an object usable for indexing/slicing, e.g.: y = slice.literal[0:1] [1,2,3,4][y.as_indexer] ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24379> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
