It doesn't mean anything for Python. It's just a special singleton sentinel object that is stored in the predefined variable "Ellipsis" and has a literal "..." in the language. Apparently, Python provides it as a courtesy to the Numpy module: https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.13.0/reference/arrays.indexing.html Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
