I want to write a function that operates on one-dimensional multi_array's and use it to modify the columns of a two-dimensional multi_array. I thought that this would be a straightforward application of slicing, i.e., views with dimensional reduction.
Any suggestions?
Attached version of it working, I think. Not quite what you had in mind since my attachment includes saves the view as a temporary and then passes the view by reference to the function fill_array.
Thanks. That works, but it's really ugly. I don't understand why a slice of a multi_array(_ref) isn't simply a multi_array_ref. The current implementation seems to make dealing with slices unnecessarily complicated. The documentation on views is also very thin. Can anyone explain the rationale behind the design? Thanks again, Jim
