Can xrange in this case save me from creating a temporary array here or doesn't it matter? |6> y[np.argmin(y, axis=0), xrange(y.shape[1])] array([0, 0, 0, 0, 0]) //Torgil On Tue, Dec 13, 2011 at 11:27 PM, Robert Kern <robert.k...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Tue, Dec 13, 2011 at 22:11, Ken Basye <kbas...@jhu.edu> wrote: >> Hi folks, >> I need an efficient way to get both the min and argmin of a 2-d >> array along one axis.
